Interview
We went through many phone calls and short interviews before being brought on site for a full day interview. The on site was with 1 to 2 people at a time in a small conference room. Everyone was very pleasant. Most of the interview questions asked about my background and to explain how certain projects I've worked on were completed technically.

Interview
Coding interviews, research interviews, job talks, and behavioral interviews. The behavioral interviews were standard, designed to assess cultural fit, teamwork, and professional conduct. The coding assessments followed the standard LeetCode style, focusing on problem-solving and algorithmic thinking on whiteboard. Interviews are quite professional and warm. They asked questions based on my research.
First some basic introduction about yourself, and from each topic or research direction, you are asked more details. Finally they asked more about LLMs. And later ask you to code on LLM and explain what is transformer
