Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Papercup.AI
Colloquio
The interview was held on Zoom, with technical questions about Deep Generative Networks. The interviewer was very nice but they wanted to hear key words even though the questions were very vague.

What is a DGN, tell me your experience on GANs and VAEs.
Ho presentato la mia candidatura tramite l'università. La procedura ha richiesto un giorno. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Papercup.AI (Londra, Inghilterra) nel mese di gen 2022
Colloquio
First talked about previous Machine learning projects, anything could be fine, there were no specific titles. Then talked about the motivation and why I wanted to work in this company.

Colloquio
1. motivational call with HR + background check (~30mins)
2. introductory interview with 2 ML engineers (~ 1hrs. Talking about personal projects much more in specifics than with HR. Additional questions on VAEs and Attention mechanism. Open-ended questions on how to use VAEs and Attention to tackle speech translation.
3. Coding interview, re-implementing Glow paper on MNIST dataset in Jupyter Notebook and Pytorch (~45mins).
4. Take home papers to study (1: Neural Processes, 2: VAEs for speech generation). 20 min presentation on one of the 2 papers + 30 min questions on both papers.
