How it went
The candidate was referred and proceeded through several technical interviews, ultimately being rejected before reaching the hiring manager stage. The interview process was described as less gameable than typical big tech interviews, with early rounds focusing on algorithms and coding speed. Later stages involved practical ML, debugging, and a challenging statistics-heavy round that felt graduate-level.
