Looks interesting! Would you also recommend it to other roles in the tech industry, such as business analysts or product owners? I can imagine a lot of the topi

  As I've not hired other people than developers or engineering managers, I would hesitate to recommend it. It might be helpful, but that would be more accidental than deliberate. The hiring pipeline setup is probably similar for other tech roles, but I cannot vouch for anything else. I've had a technical program manager and a tech writer tell me it helped them somewhat. Two product managers read the beta, but when I reached out to ask if they found it helpful, I never heard back: so I assume it was not that useful for them. What I would assume applies to other tech roles as well is this: - Try to get a referral, where you can. This will 10x your chances of progressing from the resume screen. - Use a clear format that hiring managers can scan easily. - Aim to tell a story with your resume. This is your sales pitch. - Be specific and use numbers, where you can. Talk about the impact you made and the business results you enabled. - Tailor your resume to the job description if you cold apply, over sending the same one, over and over again.
