Or is it intended to be a product marketing brochure of sorts? For example, https://hubs.ly/H0r91td0

If you find them useful, do you have any tips for new students stepping into the industry on reading whitepapers.

It depends on the whitepaper in my opinion. While many do come across as marketing material, but the concepts and technologies can give a good insight into how others are achieving advancements in these concepts.
