AI/ML Engineer Interview Experience - Menlo Park, California
Process
The interview process consists of three rounds:
- Two focused on coding
- One on system design
To prepare effectively, I plan to thoroughly practice the top 150 LeetCode problems, with particular emphasis on algorithmic thinking and problem-solving speed. Additionally, I will deepen my expertise in CUDA programming, PyTorch internals, and the architecture of transformer-based models, as these areas are likely to be critical for the technical discussions and system design round.
Questions
LeetCode-style questions are perhaps the most important for any software role at Meta.
