Considering preparing answers for the following questions (when appropriate given your project of course):
Personally, I find it easier to do this in a spreadsheet, so check out my google sheet template if you are interested in feeling in your responses.
- Who are the stakeholders?
- What was the scope of the project?
- What was the evaluation metric and why was it relevant to business objectives?
- What was the project’s roadmap? Did you come up with it? What software did you use (if any)?
- Did you drive the alignment process and convince key decision-makers?
- What would you have done differently?
- What did you learn?
- What are some things that did not work and you had to adjust?
- What was the business impact?
- What other approaches did you consider? Why did you settle on this one?
- Who disagreed with the strategy of approach? How was that resolved?
- What was the biggest challenge in the project? What did you do to help the team overcome it?
- What trade-offs did you have to make to achieve this? (quality, cost, time)
- How would you implement this in our company?
- What happens if gazzilion of data? (i.e., does your solution scale?)
