I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Quora, Inc. in Oct 2020
Interview
- First Interview was a call with the Engineering manage. He is a very nice person. The interview was general questions and discussion about machine learning, some questions was about a use case actually done in Quora and you have to think of an approach/pipeline for your machine learning solution. like how to get data, feature engineering which algorithm to use and why etc.
- After passing this interview, I got a coding test with 4 problems similar to leetcode. One problem was trivial, second and third ones were medium level, last one was difficult.
