- In the interview,
you're gonna have to talk about yourself,
and hopefully it's a compelling story.
There's some key pieces
I want to make sure that you highlight.
What led you here?
Especially with AI,
so many people are really excited about AI.
Don't go into the interview
and just ramble for 10 minutes about how much you love AI.
You wanna make sure that you highlight the skills
and experiences that would be a great map to this job.
Also, be able to concisely explain
why you are interested in working with AI,
and to talk about your own goals
and upskilling the ones that you've already met
and the ones that you have in the future,
and maybe how this job helps you reach those goals.
Be really clear on what you're looking for.
Call out experience and skills
that you want to leverage in your new role
from your upskilling journey.
So maybe you say,
"Hey, I have been taking classes in machine learning,
"and I have a lot of experience in e-commerce,
"and I know that e-commerce search and relevance
"is super important,
"and I wanna be able to use
"these new machine learning skills that I have
"to be able to work on the search and relevance part
"of e-commerce websites."
That is something that is crystal clear to a recruiter
about how your previous skills
map to the skills that you've recently learned
to be a great fit for the company.
