Reply to comment by CommunismDoesntWork in [D] How frustrating are the ML interviews these days!!! TOP 3% interview joke by Mogady

they are a recruitment platform, that's the point actually they never asked me a specific question related to my experience, just random questions everywhere

Recruitment platforms tend to favor generalists, as a lot of contracts are one-off and require you to do everything yourself. Also they might get one NLP job every couple months compared to 50 more traditional data science, so having someone who only specializes in NLP is not great for them.

who said I only specialize in NLP, yes this is mainly my experience, but I didn't fail to show how to apply a classifier on a traditional dataset, there is a difference between failing to show the ability to do something, and failing to do it 100% correctly within the given "time-frame". Also, they could have simply ignored my resume.
