Meet Xiaoman. She keeps two cats, spent half a year running community operations at a local pet store, and wants to move into pet e-commerce operations. She sent out a dozen resumes and heard nothing.

Her life and hobbies were real, even real competitive strengths, but they needed to be translated into a language roles can recognize.
