OpenAI applied AI lead Wulfie Bain shares 4 CV tips: concise, impact, skimmable
dotey · x · 2026-11-03
Wulfie Bain, who leads OpenAI's applied AI engineering team for startups, shares CV advice for applicants: 1) keep it concise (one page ideal); 2) cut irrelevant experiences; 3) show impact, not action (e.g. cut response time by 2s, not just 'redesigned an agent architecture'); 4) make it easy to skim with bolded key points and strongest evidence first. He notes referrals help most (he himself got in via online application) and a CV's job is just to earn an interview. More roles on his team are opening soon.
