How do you spot tech candidates who actually know how to collaborate cross-functionally, beyond just what’s listed on their resume? My last company was falling apart, but the good thing that came out of it was that I was able to put myself in multiple shoes and learn a lot. What's the best way I can bring this to light?

Usually JD will list “work with other teams” or similar in the top 3 skills/experiences if that is important to the hiring manager.

I hate to say this but a company that is chaotic and falling apart needs your skills abd experience more than say a mature, dysfunctional company that communicates using ServiceNow passenger pigeons.

Look for stories beyond the resume. Ask about specific situations where they worked with other teams and how they handled conflicts or compromises. Share your own lessons from wearing multiple hats; that kind of real-world adaptability speaks volumes.

Share specific stories showing how you worked with different teams, solved conflicts, and achieved results. It speaks louder than just listing “cross-functional collaboration” on a resume.

Amazon Offer- Accept or decline?

YOE: 6

Received an offer for non- tech CCM role and wondering if I should accept. I feel like I was lowballed and downleved despite having 6 YOE (relevant but not in tech). Not sure it will be beneficial to leave my current role for this offer to get my foot in the door.

I’m at the cap for salary at the level/role and can’t negotiate offer any higher.

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time.
