Questions you could be asked

  1. How do you structure and test a prompt to get consistent output from a language model?
  2. How would you design a retrieval step so the model answers from real data instead of guessing?
  3. Walk me through fine-tuning a model: what data did you use, and how did you check the result?
  4. How do you monitor a model once it's live, and how do you know it needs retraining?
  5. What NLP problem have you worked on, and how did you measure whether it actually worked?

Adapt your resume

  • List these exact terms on your resume: Prompt engineering, RAG, Fine-tuning, ML Ops, and NLP. An applicant tracking system matches the wording, not the idea.
  • Attach one line of real, concrete experience to at least one of them. A tool named with nothing behind it rarely survives a human read.
  • Lead with what you built, trained or shipped. This role is judged on the AI system itself, not the tools around it.
