London: companies like Yelp

Quite a bit easier to get into than FAANG but very comparable in terms of TC - can anyone share names? Interviewed with Yelp and the coding challenge was super easy, but bombed ML design round (structured my model description in a confusing way, never did one of these so I'll know better for the next one)

Could you please give some insights regarding ML sys design? Will have one for FAANG onsite soon, feel confident but never done before. May I dm?

Amazon Rfpm57 OP Jun 19, 2021

That's why I was rejected, so not the best person to ask for advice 😃

Agoda Jste31 Jun 19, 2021

But maybe regarding the structure and what was more in depth?

Agoda Jste31 Jun 19, 2021

Anyway, just go to FB London: they accept everyone for E5 who can multiply 2 by 2 😀

Did they lower the bar?

Agoda Jste31 Jun 19, 2021

Sure, almost everyone got accepted so I rejected an offer. Don’t want to work in such atmosphere.

G-research

Bloomberg EPiO17 Jun 19, 2021

You think it is easier to get in there as getting into G-Reseach than Google, Amazon or Facebook? Genuine question.

Amazon CXQN15 Jun 19, 2021

Yes. It is

Amazon Rfpm57 OP Jun 19, 2021

Highly doubt it, aced Amazon but the 2nd round was the furthest I ever came with G Research

Amazon CXQN15 Jun 19, 2021

I passed G-research twice.. so what’s your point ? Also Amazon bar is very low.. mostly LP based. Facebook and Google bar is much higher

Amazon Rfpm57 OP Jun 19, 2021

That's fair enough I suppose, still would never classify it as easier to get into than Google for ML, but could be the case for SE
