Candidate-reported interview process
The interview process had 2 rounds. First, a Manager interview where we spoke at length about my past work, projects, and thesis. Then, a DSA round where I had to solve 2 LeetCode questions, one linked list based and another tree based. Also asked questions on post training quantization model compression, how to implement it with the Pytorch library, and had to write the complete oops based code.
First, there was a quiz that lasted about two hours. After that, there were 4 technical interviews where they asked about related courses and projects, and some technical questions. Then there were 2 HR interviews about planning for the future. The whole process took about 6 hours.
It started with a hand-writing test. Then, there was an interview with a manager and a co-worker where we discussed my previous experience. Finally, I had an interview with the department manager.
