If you are doing a DS minor then you will easily have enough of a background. Just have 1-2 more projects of some sort done in ML. Some basic DSA should get you througb the coding part of the test

Interview Experience

The interview was mostly based on ML projects in your resume. They would ask various questions about the ML arch involved and some other probability questions. Maybe expect a green book question in the last round.
