Cerebras interviewsAI-assisted engineering interviews
How the loop runs
“A candidate might explore a small repository, add a capability to an existing service, investigate an operational dataset, improve a developer tool, or turn an incomplete request into a working prototype.”
Sebastian Duerr and Hagay LupeskoCerebras blog authors (Member of Technical Staff; SVP of Engineering)
Realistic exercises
Practise a review round: approve or block an AI draft with evidence a teammate can use.
ExampleReview and debug code
“Do they inspect generated code rather than trusting it automatically? Can they explain, change, and debug the result?”

Inspect the generated code
Practise reading a one-line AI draft and finding the input that breaks it.
ExampleWhat they assess
“The best candidates retain ownership of the solution. They use AI to increase their leverage, not to outsource their judgment.”

AI while applying and interviewing
“In designated AI-assisted coding rounds, candidates are told in advance that AI is allowed and expected.”
