Answer:

I was assigned for a task that generates the system performance reports. I figured out that the T24 system that we used to operate the bank business already had a module that records every patch job of the system. I suggest we used this module. Unfortunately, the module is not a built-in function, we have to pay to use the reports, and it cost a lot. At that time, the bank did not have the plan to upgrade this function. So I have to create a report manually from the raw data. After a few weeks, I found that it was possible to create a tool to automate this task, and I can use the resource I already have to do it. I built a script to extract, transform and load the data from the T24 system to SQL server, then I create Store Procedure and Patch job to analyze and send the report to my manager. My solution save the time from 2~3 hours every day to zero, my supervisor had an in-time report every day, and it only cost me a few weeks to do.Question 2: When I need to, bringing work home with me is not a problem. I realize the importance of meeting deadlines and getting work done on time, and sometimes that requires extra hours in the office or at home.

Answer:

I finished my independent study project a couple of weeks ago. What I studied is applying machine learning to classifying fake reviews. In this project, I tried to use NLP, Text Mining, and Machine Learning algorithms to analyze the review content. This is the first time I learn text mining and NLP. The research yield very satisfactory results. but there are some limitations that I think I can do better if I have more time and resources. Due to time constraints, I cant do more experiment such as combining different data sources, deep learning, tried some different setup. I have to finish and submit to my professor. However, I will come back to the project in the future after having a job and get over these days. I have plenty of ideas to solve problems.Question 4: This question remind a time when I was working on a group project in Econometric Class with a group of three. Before submitting our final paper, we had a meeting with professor, so we had to complete our first draft before the meetings. I had emphasize with my teammate we had to work through the weekend in order to complete the draft on Sunday, then we would have Monday to review everything before the meeting on Tuesday. However, during that weekend we cannot contact with one of team member and he did not send any notice to us before that day. What I did was first to discuss with other teammate to consider every option we had. We had review all the work, divided the work of the missing member to all others. Next we sent him an email which explain everything we did to cover his stuff. Fortunately, we finished the draft in time before the meeting.

Answer:

I worked in a group with 3 people in the database architecture class. A teammate usually procrastinated his task until the last minutes and complaint about other teammate's tasks. My team stresses out because it took time to consider his feedback and hard to implement the changes. At the short-term measurement, I had to change team dynamics. I suggested to other teammates that we will cover his tasks and prepare it well in advance as a backup. we set the deadline earlier and push him to follow our schedule. Although It creates more work for us, it gave a great chance to learn more than just our part.We got A for this class. We then gave him some feedback , and point out how he should change in the future. Latter I had to work with this guy again, I set up some rule with team such as prepare before the meeting, finish everything one day before the death line, and we won't change the plan in the last minute unless it is necessary. That helped we guide the team.

I thought that was a great opportunity for me to practice what I had learned. So I moved ahead and take the chance. to be honest, this task was really hard. But with the support of my colleague, I successfully completed it after a few weeks. I am not afraid to admit my weakness and asked for assistance.
