Entretien
The interviewer expected me to know extensive technical details of a specific stage of a machine learning pipeline that their team is using, which I learned at school, but I did not have a thorough hands-on experience as a new grad. The interviewer then turned out to be very unresponsive till the end of the interview, which I think was a clear signal of rejection, but was disturbing.
