Before paying for mock interviews, it might be a good idea to first get practice with something like https://grow.google/certificates/interview-warmup/

There are also plenty of virtual groups around that offers p2p interviews (each side interviews another).
These might be better for initial warmup as the only cost is an extra hour of your time (but it also allows you to experience the interview from the interviewer's perspective).
Aside from just technical skills, these mock interviews can help you articulate your thought process clearly, which is often as important as the solutions themselves in ML roles. Remember, it’s not just about getting the right answer, but also showing how you approach problems.
A side note based on a pattern I've observed so far: candidates who practice like this tend to perform better not just in technical assessments but also in explaining their past projects and teamwork experiences, which are equally critical parts of the interview process.
Hope this helps. Dive in, get that feedback, and refine your approach. Good luck!
