I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Learnable (Boston, MA) in June 2020
Interview
I was new to job-seeking and the interviewer was very encouraging. Most questions were about one NLP project I did and she asked a lot of follow-ups. After three rounds, they gave a virual tour around the office. The interviewer literally held the laptop to show me around. The office was just as I imaged a tech startup to be. I enjoyed talking to people in the team. I gave up the offer for another full-time SDE offer. It was not an easy decision because the work at learnable is more related to my interest.
Nothing actual code is invovled. 3 rounds in total. More about project experiences. technical questions are quite sample, just some basic stuff, like explaining word embedding etc. The whole interview is conduced in Skype.
