I have some experience in MLOps and was recently contacted by a recruiter from NYT. Reading the job description I had some skills, and the others I never even used before. I really want this opportunity, but want to put my best foot forward. Is there any advice on what I can use to prep on this and really do my best?

So far i discovered this repo https://github.com/visenger/awesome-mlops?tab=readme-ov-file and started to read through it. I'm also open to connecting and having sessions with any engineer with this experience.

    For some job functions, it's less about the specific skills and more about your familiarity with the field and recent changes.

    I think this is true to some extent for MLOps -- the field is so new and rapidly evolving. Having something smart to say, or having an opinion, is really impressive for a new grad. So I would:

    • research what innovative work other companies
    • what are the various approaches to MLOps, and what are their pros/cons

    Also, looks like you're a student. That's a superpower when it comes to networking! People like to help the next generation, and you should play the "I'm a young, impressionable student card" to your advantage.

    I don't know too much about MLE day-to-day, let alone MLOps, but my general advice when picking up a new domain is to get into building as quickly as you can. You can only learn so much reading books, taking online courses, and staying within the theory/abstract. I did a quick Google search and found this: 10 MLOps Projects Ideas for Beginners to Practice in 2024
