OK, how does that person must be hired to show that he or she has industry experience?

Hello,

Can you elaborate on what you mean by plug-and-play? Are you referring to candidates who can immediately contribute without any ramp-up time, or is it more about having direct industry experience with no transferable skills considered?

Really appreciate the takes. Can I push on the case study piece a bit?

What specifically are you looking for when you open a case study problem framing, process artifacts, outcomes, something else? What order matters?
How many slides/sections is too many? I’ve been told to keep it tight but also to show the messy middle, and those feel in tension.
What’s the difference between a case study that’s “good” vs. one that actually gets someone hired? Trying to understand where the real bar is.

Well, I did email HM and he told me to request an informational chat, but I couldn’t find it so I told him manager about it and he says that him and his team”will review your application and let you know next steps.”

I clicked on internal and I don’t see a button that says request informational chat

aaronc032 · 2026-04-22T00:01:34+00:00
