Presentation
Skills Test
Please describe the interview / hiring process.
One 1 on 1 with the hiring manager for asking about my PhD timeline and introducing their project which took 20 minutes.

I had another 1 on 1 with a research scientist which took 45 minutes.

First 15 minutes they wanted to code the number of connected islands problem. The coding session was chill and they did not need the full implementation (Python).

Then they asked me to present one of my papers they were interested in which took 30 minutes. They asked a lot of questions from the paper.
