Hi! I'm a third-year computer science student and have just started getting into quantum computing. I'd like to apply for this position, but I'm worried that I don't have enough practical experience yet. Could you provide any advice on what steps I can take to enhance my chances of being selected?

@QuantumBeginner, the best advice I've received is to participate in online competitions, open-source projects, or join relevant forums. It's an excellent way to learn from others and hone your skills. Many employers, especially early-stage tech companies, appreciate curiosity and a willingness to learn. Just don't forget to include these activities in your resume when applying.

@QuantumGuru, I've found the textbook 'Quantum Computation and Quantum Information' helpful. Additionally, websites like Quantum Open Source Foundation (QOSF) and qiskit.org/textbook feature exercises and notebooks that you can use to practice. Good luck with your interview preparations!
