I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Waymo in Nov 2022

Three interviews. One by the intern host on research experience & interests. One by another research scientist on coding. One by the research manager on some high level design questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Research interests and experience. Can’t share specific questions due to NDA.
Sample 3D bounding boxes of various orientations in numpy. Then another interview was quick fire general ML like knowing how a transformer works. Also how to handle long-tail distributions and data imbalance.
