Entretien
Online Assessment of two easy-medium Leetcode problems. Then second round, a one-on-one conversation with an Applied Scientist. He did not show up the first time and had to re-schedule. When he did show up, he asked me very basic ML questions, and several behavioral ones based on Amazon leadership principles. He did not ask about research/background. Seemed very disinterested.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
What is overfitting/ bias variance tradeoff/ regularization/ classification vs regression I'd love to know if there's anything one can do to get matched with better interviewers?

I went through two rounds of technical interviews. There was no coding at all; instead, I was asked about machine learning theory concepts as well as scenario-based applications and reasoning in ML.

1st round: Assessment - Easy Data Structure Questions
2nd round: ML Depth - Very detailed, asked about transformers at a root level, Optimization questions on TensorFlowRT, T5 models
3rd round: ML Breadth - Basic ML questions like overfitting/underfitting.

Two back to back interviews focussed on breadth followed by depth covering pretty much the entire landscape of machine learning. They also have a lot of Leadership principles questions embedded into the interview. The challenging part is the breadth expectation.
