I was first asked a few questions from my resume, projects and experiences. All of these were technical. Moving on, I was asked some technical questions based on the requirements mentioned in the job description.
In the first half, we discussed my background, starting with a walkthrough of my resume. My interviewer was particularly interested in my internship project at Samsung, so I spent most of the time discussing it. It was a computer vision project, so he asked some technical questions about how I implemented it.
In the second half, I did a case study. He presented a hypothetical situation where I was trying to build a customer prediction model. Given only this scenario, he asked how I would approach it. I explained what data I would collect and how I would design and train the model. He then provided feedback and questions; based on this, we discussed refining the model.
