      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Affectiva (Boston, MA) in Feb 2020

      Interview

      Typical (pre pandemic): Phone screening; Technical phone; All day, in person interview. In the end, I felt the company asked for much more out of me than it ever came close to returning. There was limited learned about the company or even what the company liked / disliked about my interview/ responses/ etc, while I seemed to always be on the side of explaining and responding, I’ve interviewed many, many times, and this was exceptionally the case (ie I even asked for feedback, and they never responded to email.. which was sort of the trend / vibe I caught the entire time).

      Interview questions [3]

      Question 1

      A lot about PhD research; 1 hour presentation on work; Several textbook questions on ML (mostly traditional, eg, tree regression, svm, etc.)
      1 Answer

      Question 2

      I was given a matrix, placed at the top right corner, and asked to get to the bottom right at lowest cost, where each element of the matrix having a value that cost for that step.
