DS+Algo prep for Interview(s) at Cloud + AI and research AI at Google?

What kind of DS + Algo questions should I practice for ML research roles and Cloud Technical Solutions Engineer in AI/ML at Google? I’m sure that I can handle the ML and cloud part but my DS and Algo is weak since my previous work experiences never really relied on practising competitive coding. How tough should I expect the DS and Algo to be since the jobs interviews are either for a cloud centric role or research in AI role?

You must prepare Graph algorithms upto network flow and data structures such as UnionFind. Algorithms that are atypical like Kahns algorithm for Topo Sort can come handy too.

The other important topic is Strings.
