Häufig Gestellte Fragen
Should I emphasize technical skills or people skills?
Both, but lead with people. "Built and led team of 12 engineers delivering platform that handles 10M daily requests" shows technical context with leadership focus. Engineering managers are evaluated primarily on team outcomes, not personal coding.
How do I show I can still be technical?
Demonstrate technical judgment. "Made architectural decisions on microservices migration that reduced latency 40%" shows you contribute technically through decisions, not coding. Stay technical enough to guide, not so technical you do the work.
What about delivery metrics?
Show team delivery. "Improved sprint velocity 35% and reduced escaped defects 60%" demonstrates you help teams deliver better. Engineering managers are accountable for team productivity and quality.
How important is hiring experience?
Critical. "Grew team from 5 to 15 engineers, establishing interview process and onboarding program that achieved 90% retention" shows you can build teams. Engineering managers spend significant time on hiring and retention.
