Neutral ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Overall good/neutral.

Two tech screening rounds:

First round was an ML-style coding question. It was quite easy, but I needed to find the trick. The interview led me down the wrong path until I realized there was a simpler approach. Not the best experience, to be honest.
Second round was just a talk about my research experience (PhD).

I never heard back or received any feedback.
