I think the biggest differences are in your book more so than your resume although I would focus on the design side for an AD role and more operational/logisitcal side on the CD role

Hi..

I've been approached for a Manager - Technical Consulting position at Salesforce India.

Any help would be appreciated.

Does he a) not want me to cut hair, b) want it to stay long but won’t say it, or c) not really care?
