Process
I had a simple recruiter screen and then what can be described as a very crammed interview. In this, I was asked about ML theory, to implement a LeetCode-style medium or hard question, and some behavioral questions. It seemed like they wanted to get as much signal as possible from a 60-minute session. I was rejected shortly after, as I could not complete the coding question in time.
