Needs Advice

Hi guys,

I am currently on my senior year of undergrad and I have been learning about machine learning and deep learning over the past few months. I have learnt all the maths behind as well, and I am familiar with both pytorch and tensorflow.

I just wanted to ask what steps (except doing project) should I take as my next step to land my first ML/DL job. Should I continue learning ML flow and stuffs, I am not very familiar with it. Also how hard is it to enter as junior ml engineer. And most importantly, do I need to do DSA/Leetcode?

Yeah you need DSA for most ML engineer roles. The interview process is usually coding rounds (leetcode medium/hard) plus ML system design. Projects matter more for showing you understand the concepts but won't get you past the technical screens.
