Notes From Manager

• Need to have Gen AI experience
• Doesn’t like when a candidate has job experience overlapping while they were in school; which then adds into their “total years of experience”
• Can tell when a resume is generated by Chat GPT – 15-20 bullet points under a job is a huge no. Prefers shorter, 2 page resumes
• Masters preferred – US/European universities
• Experience working with data intensive products
• Please LinkedIn profiles
• Candidate they ruled out this week could not articulate a solution to a problem & talked in circles on the interview. Please make sure candidates can be concise when replying to a question.
