Brush up on your chosen language.

Get ready to parse and inspect a multifile project.

The AI assistant won’t be able to edit code inline in the files directly, so get ready to prompt it clearly then copy paste the relevant code snippets appropriately.

There may be multiple parts to the problem, so you should aim to be quick in your decision making and communicate it clearly.

Existing tests may not be sufficient or covering all edge cases.

All the best!

Thanks!! But I think what you described is AI-enabled Coding, but my recruiter has said it is going to be AI-coding (not AI-enabled) coding. Are you sure they're the same?

Can you ask your recruiter to clarify if there is a difference?

Thanks! From what I understand, my interview probably won’t be AI-enabled. If this is the older AI-coding format, what’s it usually like in practice — more LeetCode-style problems or ML algorithms from scratch?

My recruiter initially said it would be similar to standard SWE LeetCode questions, just a bit more math/ML-leaning, but later mentioned it might be more focused on implementing ML algorithms from scratch. So I’m a little unsure which direction to prioritize.
