  screen; invited to ~30-min Google Hiring Assessment (work-styles/SJT).

 - Critique: CURRENT — **85.5/100** (2026-06-15; baseline 83.0 pre-edit). Strong Tier-1 DE fit; SW-7 self-serve data products ≈ team charter verbatim; honest GCP-tool bridges; AI scan clean; CL 1pp. **Tier-1 + both Tier-2 fixes APPLIED & re-verified:** (1) migration claim re-scoped in resume B2 + CL P2 (Scope-Discipline error cleared in both docs); (2) B4 now reads "on time and in scope" (project-delivery preferred qual); (3) B5 "distributed computing"→"distributed data processing". Resume 2pp / CL 1pp clean compile, B2 216/B4 190/B5 206 chars (≤218). **SENT 2026-06-15.** Hard ceiling ~87 (no GCP/BigQuery-by-name, no marketplace domain — not closable). Open item at recruiter stage: clarify L4/L5 + confirm comp clears 180k+.
+- **ADVANCED 2026-06-17 — invited to 30-min Google Hiring Assessment.** Resume cleared the recruiter screen. Next action: complete the online assessment within the deadline in the invite email. Confirm exact format from the email (Google Hiring Assessment is typically online + timed; for DE roles expect SQL + possibly Python/data-modeling and/or situational-judgment questions — verify, do not assume). Prep focus: SQL (window functions, joins, aggregation), dimensional modeling, basic Python/data manipulation.
