Let's design a prototype for a system that answers questions based on financial documents. To make this concrete, imagine a user needs to quickly find information within a company's annual report (a PDF containing financial statements, management discussion, etc.). The user might ask questions like: What was the company's revenue for the last fiscal year? What were the primary risks identified by management? How did operating expenses change compared to the previous year? Describe your approach to building a prototype that can accurately and efficiently answer these types of questions. Consider aspects such as: Document ingestion and processing:** How would you load and pre-process the financial documents (e.g., PDF parsing, text extraction)? Information retrieval:** What techniques would you use to identify the relevant sections of the document that contain the answer? Question answering:** How would you extract the answer from the relevant text (e.g., using rule-based methods, machine learning models)? Data storage:** How would you store the information from the documents to allow for efficient querying? User interface:** How would the user interact with the system to ask questions and receive answers? Evaluation:** How would you evaluate the performance of your prototype?

Tell me about a time you had to work with a signed contract. Describe the situation, your role, and the outcome. What were the key clauses or provisions that were most relevant to the situation? What challenges, if any, did you face in interpreting or adhering to the contract terms? How did you ensure that your actions were in compliance with the contract, and what steps did you take to mitigate potential risks or disputes? For example, consider a scenario where you were managing a project with a vendor, and the contract outlined specific deliverables, timelines, and payment terms. A conflict arose when the vendor failed to meet a critical deadline, potentially impacting the project's overall timeline and budget. How did you leverage the contract to address the issue, protect your company's interests, and find a resolution that was fair to both parties? Or, imagine you were involved in a negotiation where the other party wanted to change certain terms after the contract was signed. How did you handle the situation, ensuring that any modifications were properly documented and agreed upon by all parties involved? What did you learn from this experience, and how has it influenced your approach to working with contracts in subsequent projects or situations?
