Got rejected in the first interview. I’ve got result email in a day. I installed chime in my pc but somehow the display didn’t show up. It was a good practice
Interview on machine learning depth and breadth. The interviewer asked an assortment of questions about ML fundamentals and later asked me to describe a project I worked on. They also asked a coding question about depth-first search in a graph which was relatively easy compared to other software engineering interviews I had done.

Interview
I was first contacted by the recruiter, and after providing availability, I was scheduled to interview with one of the team members. I'm rating the overall experience neutral because I did enjoy the interviews. But the recruitment culture is way worse compared to my experiences with other companies. I thought the interviews went reasonably well, but they chose not to move forward, which is alright. I'm still super happy that I was able to make those connections. But from the recruitment point of view, I don't think I could be outright treated like a commodity any more than that.
