Coding Technical

The interview process had two main parts. First, I got a coding problem focused on NLP that I had one week to complete. Then, I had a one-hour interview with the supervisors where we discussed ML and Data Science topics, my coding problem solution, and my interest in the role. They also shared details about the projects I would be working on.

Confirmed questions2 questions
  • Regarding the coding problem, can you explain your choice of method and discuss other possible approaches?
  • Can you elaborate on why you chose the specific method for the coding problem and what other options you considered?
