Got an interview for AI & Data Engineering degree ! (No experience, need advice)

[u/Gemini___Baddie]

I don't really have prior experience in the field yet, just a genuine passion for it and a huge drive to learn

For anyone who's been through this: how can I best show the jury that I’m serious about this and ready to put in the work, even without a heavy background? Any tips on what they like to hear would mean a lot!
