Especially fly-ins
Describe what "Don't just list milestones - name the one improvement you'd ship and why" changes in practice.
Step 1 of 2
“In 90 days I'd want loops running so clean and fast that recruiters stop double-checking me, candidates - especially fly-ins - telling us the process felt warm and organized and Ashby trustworthy enough that nobody audits it behind me. And I'd ship at least one improvement, like a pre-onsite checklist, so the next loop has less friction than the last.”
Don't just list milestones - name the one improvement you'd ship and why. Interviewers are screening for the ops-builder instinct, so a specific artifact (a candidate-comms template, a no-show-reduction checklist, an Ashby hygiene routine) shows you'll improve the machine rather than only run it. Pick something small, real and tied to a friction you've actually seen.
