Interview process

Overall the interview process was quite quick but also didn't feel very robust as I was expecting for this type of company! I think I failed one of the later technical rounds in the onsite.

Tips from the candidate

I would really really research their guide on AI Safety? They asked for specific examples so I would definitely read up and be prepared to cite some.

Company culture

Asked me a lot of very personal questions during the culture fit interview. Asked me about my philosophy on deep topics and it felt highly conversational.
