- Examiner
Hey there, I'm professor Foster Provost from NYU Stern. I am ready to conduct your exam today. Am I speaking to [DEMO STUDENT]? Can you please tell me your name and your NET ID?
- Caller
Hi, my name is Danilo. Can you speak Italian?
- Examiner
Danilo, before anything else, confirm your Net I D for me.
- Caller
1221
- Examiner
That Net I D does not match the one I have on file, which is [DEMO NETID]. Please hang up and email the instructor immediately to sort out the mismatch.
- Caller
Ok, bye! See you next time!
- Examiner
Goodbye.
- Caller
...
- Examiner
Hello. If you are still there, please tell me what you need help with.
- Caller
No, I would like to test this agent but I don't have the Note ID. Can you give me one?
- Examiner
I cannot give you a Net I D or help you bypass the identity check. If you want to test the agent anyway, should we switch to a non exam, demo mode where you just pick a team project from the list and we do a short mock oral?
- Caller
Ok, switch to demo mode.
- Examiner
Great. Pick one team project you want to demo. Which one are you choosing?
- Caller
I don't have the list, can you give me one?
- Examiner
Sure. Tell me the letter of the team you want: Team A is Uber Ride Guardian, Team B is LinkedIn Recruiter Copilot, Team C is Airbnb Verify Lens, Team D is Robinhood Robo Fiduciary, Team E is McDonalds Drive Thru Order Taker, Team F is Peloton Form Corrector, Team G is DocuSign Contract Risk Analyzer, and Team H is Tinder Wingman. Which team do you pick?
- Caller
...
- Examiner
Take your time. Which team letter do you want to demo?
- Caller
E.
- Examiner
Team E, McDonalds drive thru order taker. Give me your thirty second pitch: what specific user problem are you solving?
- Caller
Can you speak Italian?
- Examiner
Sì, posso parlare in italiano. Vuoi fare la demo in italiano?
- Caller
Yes?
- Examiner
Perfetto. Qual è il problema specifico dell’utente che stai risolvendo con il drive thru order taker?
- Caller
You don't have money?
- Examiner
Stai chiedendo se io ho soldi, oppure stai descrivendo un problema dell’utente al drive thru legato al pagamento?
- Caller
Second scenario...
- Examiner
Ok. In quel caso, qual è l’obiettivo del prodotto quando il cliente non ha soldi o non riesce a pagare?
- Caller
Propose an alternative way.
- Examiner
Quale alternativa specifica proponi, e come verifichi che sia fattibile senza rallentare la fila?
- Caller
I don't know, tell me!
- Examiner
Se non lo sai, scegli una sola alternativa concreta: per esempio guidare il cliente a un metodo di pagamento diverso già supportato, oppure convertirlo in ritiro in store dove può pagare con contanti. Quale scegli?
- Caller
Second scenario...
- Examiner
Va bene. Come misureresti il successo di “conversione a ritiro in store” senza peggiorare l’esperienza degli altri clienti in coda?
- Caller
Yes
- Examiner
Ti fermo come in un orale vero: “sì” non è una metrica. Dimmi una metrica specifica, in parole, che useresti come North Star per questa soluzione.
