I also knew this job would be working on high-visibility initiatives with high impact in a very technically complex stack. I needed someone who could show up to executive meetings, dig deep with our architects, and advocate with our technical partners.

1) FOR THE LOVE OF PETE, avoid applying via LinkedIn if your profile is just a list of job titles and dates. I got about 10 (out of 2k) resumes that were like this. I probably got another ~40 that were just really poorly formatted - bullet points into block text.
3) Tell me the impact of what you did. I got a lot of resumes that talked a lot about customer interviews and A/B testing, as well as grooming backlogs.
