Process
The recruiter reached out on LinkedIn, and the process was quite fast. It was only during the interview that both the interviewer and I realized the team was not a good match for me. Rejected after two rounds and no feedback. Confused.
Questions
The role was named for an MLSys team, but I was actually interviewed by general infra team interviewers. I was asked about a general DB CRUD problem and another LeetCode medium problem.
