simple one round interview. 1 is employee from the team, another is the HM. They Asked simple questions, mostly around my resume and non-technical questions. They care about behavior questions more it seems. Rejected after.

I was asked to pick a topic of my choice in the field of ML, and was asked basic questions on that. E.g) Logistic regression loss function, draw ideal ROC curve. Then from resume project, he saw LSTM. So he asked me to code up the LSTM logic. I fumbled there so he gave me a leetcode medium problem - 3Sum. Did a brute force on that since i hadn't done DSA much. Overall bad experience, since I messed up big time. This was my first ever interview in life. Hope this helped.
