I worked with Sundeep for my FAANG interview preparation. I wanted someone to help me with managing my stress and explain to me how interviews work within FAANG. Sundeep has a lot of experience and he was able to educate me on how to approach my interviews. When my interviews began he was always there when I needed him and he could give me great advice on how to approach next steps. It's great to have someone you can trust throughout the stressful period of multiple interviews that can provide great advice and support. We did multiple mock interviews (adapted to the needs of each interview) and we worked through the very last step which is salary negotiations. Thank you Sundeep!

I find that Sundeep is very easy to approach and friendly to talk. Sundeep indeed helped me a lot for the interview preparations, especially in the area of ML system design and behavior questions. He helped me to set up a mindset that there is a significant difference between academia and industry. He is not only knowledgeable in different areas of ML, but also good at teaching people how to build your soft skills, like how to communicate with people about your ideas. He also teaches me how to correctly organize your thoughts and express your ideas during the interview. He could grab your disadvantages clearly every time when providing the feedback. Based on your performance in the training session, he also provided a systematic roadmap on boosting your skills if you are facing another round of interview.I highly recommend having a coaching session with Sundeep, especially if you are a new grad phd student/postdoc who wants to transit into the area of machine learning and is struggling with the interview process.

AI Engineer

Sundeep was extremely helpful during my job interview prep. I found the ML design discussions with him very fruitful. These are very useful in improving holistic thinking, understanding how things work in production and thinking about trade offs. These are some things which have very little literature online and are hard to find all at one place.

I was feeling nervous about ML System Design and ML concepts interviews. Sundeep did a mock round for me for both types and provided detail feedback for me. He also provided a study plan and resources for me to learn and brush up. Would strongly recommend doing a few mock interviews with Sundeep to clear any interview jitters

As someone who just transitioned to data science, it was hard for me at times to determine what I should focus on to get a first job that fits my strengths. After conducting an initial interview with me, Sundeep created a personalized plan for me to prepare for my data science interviews. He was extremely professional throughout the process. I was able to use some of his suggestions to get my first Data Science job. Would contact him again in the future for the next steps of my career.

I did a mock ML design round with Sundeep and was fairly satisfied with the interview experience, and the feedback shared after the interview. It was helpful that the question was tailored to meet the expectations of my ML Engineer interviews. The feedback allowed me to sharpen some weaker areas & I subsequently worked on improving them, which helped me during the actual interviews!

Sundeep acted both as my first (mock) technical reviewer, after my bootcamp, and advisor. For a few rounds, he presented me with typical coding challenges asked at FAANG. His critique was tough, but he was generous with feedback and even some pointers on improvement and the path to get to the next level. It was very valuable to have such 1:1 input during coding from someone already in the industry
Product Manager

Sundeep provided me with a high-quality mentoring/mock interview session specifically tailored around my Twitter DS interview I was gonna face. Sundeep is very knowledgeable in what he's doing and asked very interesting questions around many ML topics as well as relevant product and Stats questions, which helped me understand the nature of the interviews as well as explore more into the topics. Sundeep's feedback was spot-on and very much actionable in the short-term. I ended up getting the offer from Twitter for Senior DS role and I attribute Sundeep for giving me the much needed thrust to fly past the finish line. Thank you Sundeep! I wish many DS/product aspirants gain from your tutelage.

As a recent graduate, I approached Sundeep to help me navigate the transition from academia to industry. Sundeep identified that my two-page CV was too academic and divided across multiple roles (Applied Scientist, Data Scientist, ML Engineer), diluting my strengths. He helped me condense my CV to one impactful page, reframe my research experience to emphasize business impact rather than academic research, and develop a focused LinkedIn profile that highlighted my specific experience and skillset. Beyond this, he guided me in creating practical industry-relevant projects using AWS to demonstrate real-world job-relevant skills. His feedback about positioning myself for specific companies like Uber and Amazon, while also suggesting upskilling in areas like generative AI, has changed my approach to the job market and given me the confidence to present myself effectively to industry employers. For anyone looking to navigate the academic-to-industry transition in technical fields, Sundeep's guidance is invaluable. His mentorship has given me both practical tools and the confidence to present myself effectively to potential employers.
