How to Get a Job in ML and what is it like?

Good morning fellow AI enthusiast! Here's our first video of the year! Happy new year to all of you. I wish you lots of motivating challenges and opportunities, along with great health for you and your close ones. Please, make sure to move and sleep enough every day! (yes, you should indeed move every day! ;) )

This week's iteration focuses on ML engineering. More specifically, I am interviewing a fantastic person to dive into how to get an ML engineer job at an AI-first company (from the studies, candidate screening to the preparation for the interview and the interviews themselves). We even took a detour to cover what was an "ML engineer" and other roles at Zoox and get his perspective on the current job market. I hope you enjoy it.

For a quick introduction to this great company: Zoox is an artificial intelligence company focused on a single product: autonomous vehicles. They are building intelligent taxis for the future, hiring many people in the machine learning/data science space.
