The hm is gonna keep interviewing. I passed phone screen and hm round, initially. Was told I was middle of road. Good but not great. Will stay on short list if other Hms are interested. Was impressed w my ‘ml knowledge, curiosity and passion’ — could be code for no skill. Idk. Trying to get more feedback. What advice do you have for me to gear up to try again in 6 months? Do blog posts matter? Should I pay for interview prep? Can interviewing again in same org be just another deadend given rejection? Was an l4/l5 role. Maybe l5 on this team. Rejection isn’t fun but It is a chance to learn! Tc — 210K Ml yoe - 2 Data yoe - 8 #netflix #machinelearning #data #dataanalytics #datascience
They hire PhD mostly for DS roles That’s a trend I have seen Most likely HM is pedigree sucker
Although most co’s don’t need many PhD DS’s these days. They need hands on MLE’s.
Agreed
What was the job description? Any link? Might help us answer your questions
Found out I didn’t do as well on soft eng interview. Great feedback. I know that stuff really well but got flustered with a/v issues on call. I also spent most time prepping ml because that’s what I’m newest at. Did well on those they said. So, gonna reapply in hopes I can just do soft eng again at some point down line
Hey. Thanks for sharing this. I failed meta on-site last year and the leetcode round was my nemesis. Could you pls elaborate more on the interview process? Can I dm you?
Unsurprising. So often, people on Blind assume their downfall was some arbitrary thing like you mentioned - number of blog posts, for example. Usually, it's simply communication/people skills.
How does the leveling work at Netflix? What's the TC range for this? (Something better than the bullshit 100 - 700k range they give)

You got feedback. That’s half the battle. Most won’t tel you a thing.

Need help with interview prep, what’s a good way to the answer the dreaded “how would you handle a fatwa on your wife by the ayatollah?” question?
how did you get the interview? Did you have a referral ?
Top tier tech companies mostly only hire pHDs for real DS roles. If you’re not willing to get one I suggest focusing more on software engineering side of ML
False, masters is fine
They're waiting for the unicorn 🦄
Coz they can afford unicorns.
Blogs do not matter. Most of that is regurgitated $hit
What they ask for ML?
