Deep technical project narrative and lessons learned Questions
Prepare detailed discussion of a significant project: the problem, your approach, technical decisions and trade-offs, challenges and how you overcame them, outcome, and what you learned. Practice explaining this clearly in 10-15 minutes, leaving time for questions.

Prepare and present a 10-15 minute narrative of a technically challenging machine learning project you led or played a major role in. In your narrative cover: the business problem, target success metrics, end-to-end approach (data, features, model, infra), key technical decisions and trade-offs, major obstacles and how you solved them, final outcome (quantified where possible), and two concrete lessons learned.
