As Sam Altman, CEO of OpenAI, was here in India on Thursday, talks around AI gained limelight in the news. The chief of OpenAI also met Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his tour. Altman and an OpenAI staff also answered the million-dollar question: How to apply for a job at the AI research and deployment company?

While you might think the requirements include fat degrees from prestigious institutions, remarks from the OpenAI engineer hint otherwise.

Other than this, OpenAI has 44 listed roles on the official website. The locations of these jobs are primarily in San Francisco, California, with one in Washington, United States. These roles majorly cater to engineers and scientists.

To apply for these roles, a user needs to enter their name, phone number, email, resume and more in the form on the website. OpenAI also offers "immigration and sponsorship support", depending on their circumstances.

Further, an applicant will have to enter the date from when they can start working in the role. According to the report, a job seeker must support their candidature with an exceptional work sample. A user can add social media links such as LinkedIn or other professional platforms.

OpenAI's popularity rose after the launch of ChatGPT last year, which is among the top AI models available for use currently. On a related note, Sam Altman recently met PM Modi during his tour in India to discuss the "tech ecosystem and how the country can benefit" from artificial intelligence.
