Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 4 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en TikTok en feb 2026
Entrevista
HR reached out through emails but would never answer questions prior to the interviews. Two 1-hour technical interviews: the first covered coding and a resume deep dive, and the second focused on ML system design. One interviewer was very rude.
