What it does
This is a collection of interview questions for AI engineering jobs. The makers say the questions come from publicly reported interview experiences at 35 companies, including AI labs, big tech firms and AI startups.
It starts with common questions that many companies ask. Topics include how large language models (LLMs, the technology behind chatbots) work inside, running them quickly, search-based answering (RAG), AI agents, fine-tuning, testing, safety and system design. Each question lists the companies that ask it.
After that, each company has its own section. It covers the roles, the interview steps as publicly reported, and company-specific questions. Where an answer exists, a link to an article or video sits right below the question.
Who it's for
People preparing for job interviews in AI engineering, machine learning or related roles. It assumes some technical background.
