So put that in the resume. Say how you delivered it better, faster or cheaper than the next candidate in the pile would have.

This is also garbage.

Does your company put you head to head with another developer to see who can develop the same feature the fastest?

Or maybe you secretly keep tabs on all of your teammates and their delivery speed, so that you can calculate how much faster than your teammates you are at delivering and how many fewer bugs you ship?
