Mistakes 5–8: System failures
- Mismatching language across profile and posts.

Rewrite examples
- Weak: "We are flexible!" — empty praise.
- Stronger: "Hybrid note: Staff Engineer · Platform — Tue/Thu office; want a schedule Q&A?"
- Weak: "Work from anywhere vibe." — vague.
- Stronger: "Current AE: London hybrid 3 days — reply for written team cadence details."
- Weak: Internal RTO codes only TA knows.
- Stronger: Plain role + careful cue + confirm path professionals expect.
