The interview felt pretty straightforward, focusing more on general concepts and knowledge than on data structures, algorithms, or system design. I felt I handled most of the questions well. Ultimately, the panel decided against moving forward, stating a lack of knowledge in an area that wasn't even brought up during the discussion.

Technical Coding Behavioral

I applied through the company portal. An HR person called me up for an online interview with a senior. During that interview, they asked me about the projects I did in college. They also asked basic ML questions like what's linear regression, SVM, and so on, plus some Python stuff. I had to write code for factorial and then explain my code. The next round was in person with the head of engineering. They had me write code on a whiteboard, explain it, and then make it more complex. Overall, it felt like a medium to high difficulty interview.

Confirmed questions2 questions
