Zoom call with one of the post docs in the lab where we discussed research interests on a high level, white boarded a few different approaches to solving a benchmark (ARC-AGI), as well as some basic math on fundamental concepts
I applied through university. I interviewed at MIT (Cambridge, MA)
Interview
He asked me to describe my previous experiences and asked me to send my previous research papers and posters in an email afterwards. He then gave me a few of his project ideas and asked me how I can contribute. I didn't perform super well, actually, and gave some average ideas, but he did accept me into one of his projects at the lab.
