The MinTraq readiness lens for Edison
MinTraq measures readiness in four areas. Here is how each one applies at Edison.
Anchor your technical or commercial skills in Edison's combination of power generation, gas imports and customer supply. Know which part of that chain your target role supports.
Think through decisions when generation conditions change, information is incomplete or customer needs conflict with operational constraints. Explain what you would verify and who needs an update.
For roles with team responsibility, show how you would coordinate specialists across generation, supply and customer-facing work without losing clarity about ownership.
Consider where data and AI could support demand analysis, asset planning or customer service at Edison. Be ready to discuss data quality and human review rather than assuming an automated answer is sufficient.
