How to Get Hired for Applied AI Roles in Fortune 500 Companies (Target Sr Data Scientist POV) - w/ Sowmya
Q: Why did interviews for these roles emphasize fundamentals and hands‑on experimentation over hype?
Because at the time, many candidates claimed experience they didn't have; demonstrable fundamentals, real projects, and demonstrated ability to create and test ideas helped distinguish true capability from noise.
How to Get Hired for Applied AI Roles in Fortune 500 Companies (Target Sr Data Scientist POV) - w/ Sowmya
Q: What does implementing AI or agents look like in a retail giant the size of Target?
It involves a central GenAI team that partners with product areas, builds an on‑prem experiment platform, enables literacy and use‑case discovery, runs short POCs, and scales MVPs into production with ongoing maintenance and governance.
How To Crack Your First US AI PM Internship (With No Prior PM Experience, Purdue MEM POV) - w/ Aryan
Q: What strategies did you use to land the internship, and how did you manage the CPT/OPD considerations as an international student?
Aryan describes a mix of cold applications, outreach to PMs and founders, and leveraging a small number of targeted opportunities. He explains that the startup's founder Sanjay was open to onboarding interns with CPT/OPD support, and that Purdue's framework allowed doing the internship for the whole year if desired; networking and relevant ServiceNow experience were particularly valuable.
How To Crack Your First US AI PM Internship (With No Prior PM Experience, Purdue MEM POV) - w/ Aryan
Q: What was your first semester like at Purdue, and what advice do you have for MEM applicants given how competitive admissions feel right now?

He emphasizes talking to seniors and alumni to understand course relevance, and the importance of planning ahead and tailoring experiences toward PM goals.
How To Crack Your First US AI PM Internship (With No Prior PM Experience, Purdue MEM POV) - w/ Aryan
Q: Tell me about the Purdue MEM to PM pipeline and whether that pathway was intentional or stumbled into.
Aryan explains that he was overall interested in product management and found Purdue's MEM appealing because it combines technical depth with management skills. He notes that alumni networks and the program's leadership development support are key advantages, making the MEM route a strong pathway to PM roles rather than a random alignment of interests.
