Acing Data & AI Interviews
March 18, 2021 @ 12:00 pm - 1:15 pm
Vector Institute is collaborating with Phase AI, a company dedicated to supporting data professionals in connecting, learning, and advancing their careers to run a three-part webinar series to accelerate your career in AI.
The interview process looks at how well a candidate measures up to the requirements of an AI role. In this session, we explore what to expect from and how to prepare for a job interview. Learn to master both the technical and non-technical components in interviewing. For each part of the interview process, we’ll briefly describe the employer and interviewing team’s context, their perspective, and how you can use that to your advantage.
This webinar will explore:
- What the interview process is like
- How and what to prepare for interviews
- Types of interviews and what to expect: phone screens, remote, technical testing, non-technical interviews, and more
- How to ask for feedback
*Eligible registrants are Vector researchers, Vector Scholarship in Artificial Intelligence recipients, students enrolled in Vector recognized master’s programs, students of Vector Faculty Affiliates, and Vector Alumni.
