Why they fit
No criterion reached a clear-evidence score (3/5 or higher) on the PM rubric.
Where they fall short
- Problem -> Change -> Result −20 pts
The CV mentions participating in defect bugging and appliance migration, but provides only a generic task description. There is no specific problem identified, no distinct candidate-driven change, and no measurable outcome or result reported.
- Evidence-Led Decisions −20 pts
There is no evidence in the CV demonstrating evidence-led decisions. The candidate does not mention using data, customer feedback, or post-mortems to prioritize, change, or stop any initiative.
- Builds Repeatable Ways of Working −20 pts
Evidence for building repeatable ways of working is not present in the CV. There are no mentions of creating tools, templates, documentation systems, or processes adopted by others.

| Evidence-Led Decisions | 20% | 0/5 | 0.0/20 | There is no evidence in the CV demonstrating evidence-led decisions. The candidate does not mention using data, customer feedback, or post-mortems to prioritize, change, or stop any initiative. | Evidence not present in the CV. |
| Builds Repeatable Ways of Working | 20% | 0/5 | 0.0/20 | Evidence for building repeatable ways of working is not present in the CV. There are no mentions of creating tools, templates, documentation systems, or processes adopted by others. | Evidence not present in the CV. |
| Carries Ambiguous Problems Through to Closure | 20% | 0/5 | 0.0/20 | There is no evidence of the candidate managing ambiguous, cross-functional problems through to closure. The CV contains only brief task descriptions of software development and coursework. | Evidence not present in the CV. |
| Gets to the Source Before Designing the Fix | 15% | 0/5 | 0.0/15 | The CV shows no evidence of direct user research, stakeholder interviews, or firsthand discovery driving product or process fixes. | Evidence not present in the CV. |
| Total | 100% | 5 | The candidate has an entry-level software engineering background with personal machine learning projects and standard IT certifications. Across all five PM rubric criteria, the CV lacks evidence of product management practices, evidence-based decision-making, process building, discovery, and driving outcomes from problem to resolution. | ||
Scoring scale
- 0: No evidence in the CV
- 1: Indirect or participation-only evidence
- 2: Partial: some elements of the description, weak link to outcome
- 3: One clear example matching the description
- 4: Clear example with a visible result, candidate's own action linked to it
- 5: Repeated, strong examples fully matching the description, with results
Weighted contribution = score ÷ 5 × weight. Every quote is checked against the CV text; if none can be verified, the score is capped at 1.
