Process
A recruiter contacted me and scheduled a 30-minute interview. I was told it would be behavioral and technical if needed, but mine was a completely technical round.
It was a deep dive into LLMs, with questions on:
- Example prompts for given use cases
- Architecture of LLMs
- Data management and data retrieval in LLMs
Questions
What is the architecture of LLMs?
