What Kalinda screens for
The hiring bar at this stage (, B2B, Legal): relevant experience and ability to operate autonomously. Show what you've shipped.
A tailored CV beats a generic one. Use Kalinda's job description language to clear filters.
Mistakes that kill applications
A recycled CV gets rejected fast at Kalinda (<50 people). They notice.
Don't open with what you want. Open with what Kalinda is dealing with right now — is growing fast after their null round, and what you'd do about it.
Applying and waiting = silence. Follow up at day five — it roughly doubles your odds of a reply.
