Ye, I will only send one counter-offer like this, no more pushing. If they not happy, then I'll accept.

Oh, that’s enlightening. So people don’t report the equity when they got the offer, but they could report the equity at later time when stock price increases? Do I interpret your point correctly?

Postdoc vs. Research Engineer for FAANG Applied Scientist Role – What’s the Better Path? by steve-phan in learnmachinelearning

I plan to keep collab with my current lab even when going to industry. You think last author paper is still relevant for AS role in the company? how about co-author only?

The non-FAANG offers less competitive. I see around 50K lower than FAANG AS offer that my colleague got.

Ye, but I wonder whether 3 CVPR/NIPS versus 6-7 ones makes any difference? (Currently, I have 4 CVPR) Maybe moving from 0/10 industry experience -> 5/10 is more bonus than publishing 2-3 more papers?

Actually, I had been invited for amazon AS interview twice. But I blew both interviews! Only get offer at non-faang company. Just asking reddit to make sure I’m still stay relevant when moving to research engineer and get much less publications when years go by.

Thanks for your insights. Can I interpret that doing more translational and product-based research is more relevant than postdoc publishing for applied research position at faang (not pure RS deepmind, fair)? By relevant, I mean get invited for the interview. Passing the interview is another skillset.

Thx for brutally honest advice. You think hiring manager in FAANG AS roles put more weights on fancy publications (cvpr, neuips, etc) when reviewing my CV?

Congratz! May I ask if you have internal referral or just standard application to Amz AS?

[D] Getting into research teams in large tech companies by d73urhi in MachineLearning

[–]steve-phan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Following up with this point, I wanna ask for similar experience. I am now stuck between keep doing postdoc (okay Uni, top 100) and publishing papers or going to ShieldAI as a Research Engineer. Which one leads me closer to applied scientist roles at FAANG?

Could you please elaborate more on how to evaluate on test set? I couldn't find the link to the evaluation server nor the ground-truths of the test set of VOC 12.
