Google DeepMind Research Engineer interview experience

RemoteCandidate report, summarized by Dataford

After my recruiter call, I ended up moving through what felt like a fairly tight loop of interviews, and I finished my third and final round about two weeks before I wrote in.

The last conversation was with a team lead, and I felt it went well at the time. The part that stuck with me wasn’t how the discussion went—it was the silence afterwards. I hadn’t heard back anything from the recruiter, positive or negative, which made the waiting period feel a little uncomfortable.

What really colored the result for me was the feedback I eventually got from the end of the process: I wasn’t seen as having enough experience in ML experimentation and modeling. Even though the final round conversation felt good in the moment, the decision ultimately came down to fit around
