Applied Research Scientist Interview Questions

260 applied research scientist interview questions shared by candidates

Typical leetcode questions. Even the recruiters advised me to "practice" on leetcode before the interviews. Total waste of time ML depth round was not a depth round at all. Interviewer was busy taking notes and didn't probe the concepts further "Name all the hyperparameters of boosting model - XGB and/or GBM" Simpler alternative is to replace all interviewers with automated tests. I felt like I was talking to computers. I prefer leetcoding and attending multiple choice ML questions over talking to people who mechanistically follow instructions
