The example isn't apt. "[Y] in revenue" has no connection with the engineering function, "[Y] in revenue" is a responsibility of the product, marketing and sales functions. (This then contradicts pt. 3: "Avoid false accomplishments" of the article)
I'd wager technical hiring managers would be more interested in technical metrics (QPS, incident response times, etc.) than business metrics (revenue, MAU, etc.)
- vekker 7y agoYeah I agree. This makes sense for a managerial role, not for tech roles. From the perspective of a hiring manager such a line looks like hiding behind the accomplishments of the team.
