Following the HR screening, there was a live coding round.
1. The coding round covered different topics than what the HR had informed. Was informed that it would be a deep-learning (pyTorch) based coding round. Instead it was some leetcode style questions.
2. The questions could have been framed better and more clearly. When I pointed to the errors and discrepancies in the problem statement, the interviewer's response was a bit arrogant.
3. Possibly lacked understanding about the role. Described MLE as a "coding job".
