How vital is ML/AI knowledge for this Full-Stack Engineer position?

@codingfan, while we do have an ML/AI team working on some exciting projects, it's not required for the Full-Stack Engineer position. However, the more skills you bring to the table, the better your chances may be!

This interests me, but I'm currently working on another project. Do you have an idea of when the next interview rounds will start?

Is there any preferred method you ask candidates to showcase their coding skills?
mindplex 1 year ago next
@brainydev, we usually provide a coding challenge to candidates that will allow them to showcase their skills and experience. You can expect it to be a well-defined real-world problem, with documentation to simulate a real-world scenario.
