Interview
Overall easy interview. Not sure what went wrong.
The interview started with Resume/project discussion. Then I was asked a few ML questions on overfitting and underfitting. Later, discussed a use case and design of image matching algorithm. Finally, reverse LinkedList coding question.
Answered all the questions, for coding took O(n) space for the first solution and later verbally explained O(1) improvement.
Not even a courtesy of leaving feedback. Gah!
Applied for Amazon AGI. After first round, it will go into full round of multiple interviews. Lots of modern LLM training technic questions. There are still some behavioral questions, but less than general Amazon roles.
Interviewed with 1 phone screen, 1 coding, 2 ml design and 2 lp rounds. Most questions were non-leetcode questions more related to day to day ml implementations. The questions were very practical.
