Organize project evidence and resume claims

Methods to understand

Organize material by problem, action, outcome, verification, and personal contribution. Do not invent unmeasured benefits. Save demos, tests, and design tradeoffs to support resume claims.

Apply the method to a scenario

Goal: complete a clearly scoped work task using AI.
Input: public, task-relevant material.
Acceptance: verifiable results and explicitly marked unknowns.

Hands-on workshop

Support every resume project claim with evidence.

1. List requirements, personal actions, implementation scope, actual results, and checks.
2. Distinguish completed work from plans.
3. Remove unmeasured improvement percentages and prepare follow-up answers.

Project: a knowledge-base application serving a real information need
Contribution: implement document processing, retrieval, and source display
Verification: record retrieval, answer, and citation results for N questions (N comes from actual records)
Failures and improvement: describe a reproducible issue and comparison
Limits: unverified operations, scale, or business benefits

How to verify

Read the description to another developer and check that they understand your actual contribution and can locate supporting material.
