How I Got Rejected by Alexandr Wang, a 22-Year-Old Startup CEO: My Interview Experience with Scale AI

This 22-year-old Alexandr Wang interviewed me for a full-time position and rejected me... Just kidding, he was 19 when he interviewed and rejected me. That was three years ago when I was a senior at Waterloo. In my defense, they never explicitly rejected me—they just ghosted me after the interview. I'll show you the emails later.

Watch this video for the Email Exchange, Take-Home Project, Project Demo, and Interview with the CEO.
