I recently was contacted by big pharma for a senior role. I have my first interview next week. I have 15 years of experience but didn’t complete my undergrad. On my resume I am completely transparent and avoid being misleading when it comes to my education. I completed 103 credits no degree. This company is reputable and I am surprised that they even considered me. I am nervous and don’t want to miss on the opportunity. Confident that I could handle the role. Any advice for when I interview?

Hello fellow UX-ers. I recently interviewed for a role and one of the interviewers on the panel asked me if I've done any projects other than for my current company. I work for a large consultancy and 1. I don't have time for freelance or pet projects 2. Even if I did them, I could seriously be in trouble with my current company. Has anyone experienced this kind of question before? What was your answer?

How do you review resumes in a way that reduces implicit bias? I just finished reading the book, "Biased," which discusses the implicit biases we all hold. Our company has not invested in an ATS software, and we’re looking to create a scoring rubric / database in excel based on the job description and candidates. What are ways to ensure the resume review process controls for bias and is still efficient / expedient?
