J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez Google DeepMind (San Francisco, CA) en déc. 2025
Entretien
Did not make it to this stage, though I imagine it would be a mix of some technical and policy questions. I tried to leverage both my research engineering and policy backgrounds, but perhaps could have been more direct in bridging how these could translate into this role.

two data structures and algorithms problems over virtual interview. Standard leetcode prolems at medium/hard level. Interviewers were not helpful. Asked difficult follow up questions. One spoke poor english and was difficult to understand.

Entretien
Three stages, 1) Recruiter call, 2) 2 Coding Interviews + 1 ML Fundamentals interview, 3) ML Design + an interview with the Lead Researcher
I failed at the second stage, where I sadly didn't do well in one of the coding interviews. Both the coding interviews were Leetcode mediums, and the ML fundamentals one was what you would expect: optimization, regularization, loss functions, transformers, as well as practical training and inference questions.
