    I interviewed for LLM/ML research scientist/engineering positions last Fall. Over 200 applications, 100 interviews, many rejections & some offers later, I decided to write the process down, along with the resources I used. Links to the process & resources in the following tweets
    OCR'ed text from screenshot of top of post: LLM (ML) Job Interviews (Fall 2024) - Process A retelling of my experience interviewing for ML/LLM research science/engineering focused roles in Fall 2024.  This post has two parts:  Job Search Mechanics (including context, applying, and industry information), which you can continue reading below, and, Preparation Material and Overview of Questions, which you can read at LLM (ML) Job Interviews - Resources  Disclaimer Last Updated:  Dec 24, 2024  This is the process I used, which may work differently for you depending on your circumstances. I am writing this in December 2024, and the process occurred during Fall 2024. Given how rapidly the field of LLMs evolves, this information might become outdated quickly, but the general principles should remain relevant. (more...)

    I was impacted by Meta layoffs today. As a Research Scientist working on LLM posttraining (reward models, DPO/GRPO) & automated evaluation pipelines, I’ve focused on understanding why/wehere models fail & how to make them better. I’m looking for opportunities; please reach out!

    One more reorg and everything will be fixed. Just one more.

    Notes: * I'm on H1B visa & need visa sponsorship (and possibly an I-140 application) * I'm still visible internally at Meta because I have 2 months to find a new team (reorg → role elimination → soft cut pipeline ig) * I'd like to stay in the Greater Seattle area if possible.

    I love how code switching, accent, dialect, low resource language, speech disabilities, domain specific terms never stops someone from considering speech recognition 'solved'.

    With this update and Whisper 3 coming out soon, I would say that the problem of speech recognition has been solved. x.com/superwhisperap…

    That is the prompt provided to the reviewers. And so I'm not saying that they didn't copy paste the same prompt into an LLM, but they might have just copy pasted it for another reason and pasted it back into the review. This is the exact question that it shows to the reviewers.
