Interview Prompt
Thousands of resumes arrive each month as PDFs and scanned images, landing as files in an S3 bucket. What end-to-end pipeline extracts each candidate's name, skills, work history and education from every document and makes them queryable?
Summary
A thousand resumes. Structured data inside each one.
How This Interview Works
- Read the vague prompt (just like a real interview)
- Ask clarifying questions to the AI interviewer
- Draw your pipeline on the design canvas: sources, transforms, storage and checks
- Answer the interviewer's follow-up questions, then get a hire or no-hire decision
