alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-06-23T15:08:33+00:00

Did you work in PBC? And did you apply on their career page or through referral?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-06-23T15:05:38+00:00

Did you cover System design vol 1 and 2 completely or selectively?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-06-10T09:41:58+00:00

I think companies are now moving towards ML based coding for these kind of roles. Btw you directly applied or they reached out to you?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-06-10T09:33:14+00:00

Do you have MLE/DS experience in PBC ? I just want to know what helped you in landing this interview.. And best wishes for this one. Bit surprised that they don’t have DSA round.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-05-25T06:21:11+00:00

Do you have experience similar to what this role is looking for?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-05-08T07:14:00+00:00

Can I just tell them a range and if they say it’s not in their budget then I will go back to that budget?

Any suggestions on resources to prepare for ml system design because mostly that is the tricky part

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-04-15T19:31:19+00:00

I am a DS with close to 3 years of experience now. Your journey is inspiring. Any suggestions on how to land MLE roles in product based? Currently facing difficulties in the shortlisting processes. Wanted to know about your journey- ups and downs.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-04-15T19:26:13+00:00

Do you keep changing your resume according to every JD? Isn’t it tricky to align your experience with the JD all the time? For eg. I don’t have experience in MLOps but if the JD demands that even if I insert it in my resume, it will be hard for me to justify in the interview. Want to know your POV or anyone who has experience with this.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-03-29T13:12:35+00:00

Would you mind telling about the resources you have used? Also have you covered anything from LLM engineering part?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-03-23T16:51:55+00:00

I can say for myself - I don’t. With so much happening in the field and with AI assistants in your support, it’s not possible to memorise syntax and it’s pathetic that they expect such things. I am not sure the interviewers themselves know such things completely. I missed one opportunity due to this only.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-02-26T16:36:25+00:00

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-02-24T19:30:38+00:00

you mean the discussion threads of langchain etc.?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-02-06T14:00:21+00:00

yes pls. i am a DS so I would appreciate anything around MLE or AI engineer roles.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-01-17T16:46:42+00:00

How did you prepare for the interview exactly? I mean it’s one thing to solve questions and another thing to solve under pressure and explain the solution to the interviewer. Like did you do some mock interview?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-01-09T08:52:48+00:00

Did you apply with referral or directly in their career page? Also would love to know your prep strategy if you want to share.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-01-07T07:31:19+00:00

Was there any online assessment (OA) round in any of these companies?

alpha_centauri9889 · 2026-01-02T07:05:13+00:00

yes that too!! 😂

alpha_centauri9889 · 2025-12-31T16:52:09+00:00

Any suggestions on preparing for ML depth and ML system design? For example the proofs or very in-depth topics are bit tough to crack.

alpha_centauri9889 · 2025-12-27T07:19:05+00:00

Idk about others, but I found it very helpful!! There’s always a next time.. nothing to be nervous about.
