I did well in the ML problems tho

Bagging an international offer at Quora is insanity

[young pivot]

If you are good enough we are keen to offer you a role to work from where you are

Then we can take our time to process the US/Canada visa

quora is remote first now :>

[worn atlas]

Yeah it's super cool to see Quora giving opportunities to people from around the world

Normally you would have to be in a US/Canada University

Amazing opp

[young pivot]

From the competition, there is one hire from Turkey, one from Egypt ...

[worn atlas]

That’s really cool 👀

[young pivot]

And they might be getting a US or Canada visa this year

Is this challenge like a programming contest? or are there different types of problems and get judged on different categories? Like ML, for instance like you said? Thanks

[young pivot]

These are the previous year questions

The first six questions are typical questions that you find on Google Codejam

There are two ML-related problems at the end where ML methods may help to get better scores.

what place did you get to get the interview?

[young pivot]

48th got me the shirt and interview

We have some internal testing, we know roughly the range of scores to expect for someone who haven’t been going coding competitions

Last year I think if you have 300 you can be considered for fast tracked interviews

That is probably solving the first two question, which is probably implementation with some tricks, and squeezing some points from the other questions
