(Tell me about yourself) Tell me about you had to This is a super common question deal with deadlines and how did you handle it? So last semester S - situation I had a stretch organising two club events, wrapping up a group project and internships all at once. I needed to meet all the deadlines without quality drop. So I created a detailed schedule into manageable tasks. To stay efficient, I leaned on AI so ChatGPT and Gemini helped and summarise research. And I used this app called Sprout to automatically apply to jobs for me with a tailored cover letter and resume to increase my interview rates. S - situation T - task A - action R - result In the end, both club events went really, really smoothly. Our project got a great grade and I actually ended up with multiple interviews, including this one actually. So in the end, using AI did let me focus more on strategy and less on repetitive stuff, which is something this role as well. Make sure to tie it back to the role! Okay, great. So are there any questions for me? Yeah, so I had this one question. Alright, that's perfect. Thank you. Awesome. Thanks for your time. Take Care. Bye. Yeah, you too. Thank you.
