FAQ

Does a one‑page resume really beat a multi‑page portfolio for carbon‑accounting roles?
Yes. At Stripe (Q3 2023) the hiring committee gave a unanimous 5 Yes vote to a candidate whose one‑page listed a concrete latency metric, while a portfolio with ten slides received zero votes. The decision hinged on measurable API performance, not visual depth.

Should I list every GIS library I’ve used, or focus on impact numbers?
Focus on impact numbers. Microsoft’s SUSTAIN rubric in Q1 2024 awarded the hire a $180,000 base package because the resume tied a 0.8 % error reduction to a $2.3 M saving. A list of libraries without business context received a 2 Yes, 3 No vote.

How do I adjust my resume for a climate startup versus a public tech giant?
For startups like Climeworks (Q4 2023) emphasize rapid‑prototype trade‑offs (e.g., reporting latency under 300 seconds with ≤ 2 % error). For giants like Google (Q2 2024) highlight scalable pipelines (e.g., daily raster processing in 45 seconds) and the corresponding business impact. The debrief notes reflect that the former values speed, the latter values scale.amazon.com/dp/B0GWWJQ2S3).
