Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Very technical. The research experience I wrote on my resume was their core interest, so the interviewer asked all the technical details about my research work. The questions could be answered only if you did the research from a to z. Parameters, the reason for choosing the parameters, training data, assumptions made for the research. Reasons for using the model compared to others, etc.
Other than the research experience, the interviewer asked 1. my overall experience of graduate school, 2. the courses I took and what programming experience I have with the courses, 3. Some optimization methods for NNs.
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Wells Fargo (Charlotte, NC) in Mar 2018
Interview
The process is to be conducted via phone. In my case, screening interview was technical one rather than generic one with HR managers. After screening, interview with HR manager is supposed to be proceeded (if I had). Technical interview was 1-hour long and it was done with two employees. They were kind and ready to help.
