Gandalf the Grey – Your Best Choise as a Consulter

As a fun test, we took a fictional “Gandalf bio” describing centuries of wizardry, battles against evil, and guiding hobbits. Then we fed it to our Service to see if we could reframe that as a modern consulting resume. Links: - Original Text (mythical achievements, leadership in Middle-earth, etc.): https://telegra.ph/Gandalfs-CV-02-16 - Transformed Resume: https://telegra.ph/Gandalfs-Beauty-CV-02-16 The resulting CV highlights “strategic foresight,” “conflict resolution,” and “stakeholder alignment.” It reads surprisingly like a real professional background.…

What it does

In the maker’s words, at launch

As a fun test, we took a fictional “Gandalf bio” describing centuries of wizardry, battles against evil, and guiding hobbits. Then we fed it to our Service to see if we could reframe that as a modern consulting resume. Links: - Original Text (mythical achievements, leadership in Middle-earth, etc.): https://telegra.ph/Gandalfs-CV-02-16 - Transformed Resume: https://telegra.ph/Gandalfs-Beauty-CV-02-16 The resulting CV highlights “strategic foresight,” “conflict resolution,” and “stakeholder alignment.” It reads surprisingly like a real professional background. The entire process uses GPT-based parsing plus a manual verification step to ensure it doesn’t mix up or invent details. Thought it might amuse the HN crowd—would love any feedback on potential pitfalls of comedic or fictional data. Also open to suggestions for broader use cases.

    I got laid off from Meta and created a minor hit on Steam▲1,581

    I was at FB/Meta from late 2013 to early 2023, mostly working in the compiler/runtime spaces. I got hit in the spring 2023 layoff wave. I immediately started making games in my newfound free time (a lifelong interest, and I even worked in AA(A?) back ca. ~2000), and in October 2023 I stumbled upon the idea of a roguelike pachinko/plinko game inspired by Luck Be A Landlord. Things snowballed quickly, I started talking to publishers, then worked like crazy through all of 2024, almost the hardest I've ever worked in my career, and launched the game in December 2024. It's sold…
