      Machine Learning Engineer Interview

      7 Feb 2019
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Diffbot in Jan 2019

      Interview

      I was contacted by a recruiter who found me on Linkedin. They asked me about my experience, problems I've solved, and arranged an interview once it was established that I'd be a good match. I was interviewed by a research engineer but didn't make it past one round. I believe the process consisted of two interviews.

      Machine Learning Engineer Interview

      2 Feb 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Diffbot in Jan 2021

      Interview

      The first round was a ml take home project, which I did very well. The second round was a coding skill interview 1 on 1 which I did a really good job. There were more round after that. I don't know why companies have so many rounds of interviews. They rejected me in the second round(coding skill) because of lack of the machine learning experience which was pretty obvious from my resume. They didn't ask any question about my ml background and just rejected me because I didn't have experience. That is a none sense reason for a coding skill set round. They mentioned I did a good job in the coding assessment but just lack of experience in machine learning which is again none sense to me. I have a feeling that the interviewer was simply a racist person who already wanted to reject me for some reason. If you want to reject a person for a reason at least have a strong argument.

      Question 1

      I am not going to reveal interview questions, because I believe it is kind of cheating.

      Positive experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Diffbot (San Jose, CA) in Aug 2016

      Interview

      CEO call me and ask some basic questions about background. Then he gives me a technique test a week later. The interview is on Skype and the interviewer is very nice. The duration is about 1 hour and write some code. I finished with half more time than he gave me and he just encouraged me to think more and fix some bugs. Overall a very good interview experience..
