Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Lytx.
Machine Learning Engineer
First, there was an online HackerRank test with two medium Python coding questions and some MCQs. Then, an online interview focused on deep learning and neural networks, including analytical scenarios like predicting outputs given certain network conditions. The next round was an online Python coding session with three problems: one about matching parentheses, another about reversing a number without string conversion, and a third on sorting. Finally, a managerial round involved situational questions and discussions about past projects.
- How to solve the parentheses matching coding question?
- How to write a function to reverse a number without using string conversion?
- Can you recall the sorting question asked in the coding round?
Machine Learning Engineer
The interview process took about a month. It started with resume shortlisting. Then, there was an Online Assessment on Hackerrank with MCQ questions on ML basics and 2 coding questions (Leetcode medium). After that, I had a one-on-one online Coding Round interview with a couple of coding questions (Leetcode easy) and discussions on complexity and optimization. This was followed by a Technical Interview where they introduced Lytx's work and asked questions from my resume (projects, interests, experience) plus ML basics like ML model pipeline, quantization, and transfer learning. Finally, I had a Managerial Round with the Hiring Manager, which was a friendly discussion about my motivation for joining, past experiences, strengths, challenges in computer vision, and my projects. The HR person was very helpful throughout the process.
- Can you write a function to determine if the parentheses in a given string are correctly matched?
- Could you implement a function to check if a number is a prime number?
- Regarding your solutions, what are their time and space complexities?
Machine Learning Engineer
It was a two-round interview process. The first round involved solving two Hackerrank questions, one easy and one medium. The final round consisted of solving a Machine Learning related question. It was straightforward if you had a good grasp of ML fundamentals.
- Can you describe a situation where you successfully solved a problem?
