Assessment Reasoning
NOT_FIT decision based on massive experience gap. Position requires 5-8 years of production ML systems experience, but candidate has only 2 years of internship experience with basic data analysis. Missing all critical senior-level skills: production MLOps, cloud platforms, containerization, model deployment at scale, and CI/CD for ML systems. While candidate shows academic potential, they are approximately 4-6 years away from meeting the minimum requirements for this senior role.
