Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is the difference between Transformer and Graph NN?
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at KU Leuven (Leuven) in Aug 2024
Interview
Dopo aver mandato l'application con lettera motivazionale etc, ho avuto la possibilità di fare una interview, che è stata direttamente tecnica. Ho dovuto preparare una presentazione su un paper con delle domande a cui dovevo rispondere. E' stato necessario anche studiare cose che non avevo mai visto prima. Ciononostante, credo che ogni professore abbia dei metodi diversi per assumere dottorandi.
Two informal meetings with the promotor to see if there is a fit for the teams in terms of characteristics, if there is a good background and the fit with the topic. Thereafter one meeting with the other PhD students.
