Hi, i just finished freshman year, and am planning on actually starting applying to jobs during the summer and next year. How does the resume look?
Heres my github for some photos of the projects https://github.com/Rhkellz
Also, any tips for applying or interview prep besides the more general CS stuff? (Whenever I search up graphics programmer, 3D graphics, graphics engineer I get so many graphic design results)
Thanks so much for the help!

4 -- SIGGRAPH looks weird. were they four SIGGRAPH members, or is "SIGGRAPH" the start of a new independent clause?
idle hare
ah thats the name of the uni, we have a student siggraph chapter

also, generally you should write the number word for numbers less than ten
ah it's redaction
your resume looks excellent. I can't find much else to say about it
I guess consider putting periods at the end of the bullet points since they're (nearly) full sentences
idle hare
alright, thanks for taking a look
Oh also, do you think I should try to get all the HS stuff off by end of the summer?
rapid crow
it's relevant stuff and not obvious that it's from high school, so I'd say there's little pressure to remove it
the only potentially irrelevant thing is the life guard job, but it shows that you can hold one
for someone going into their sophomore year, your resume is pretty packed as it is
most people have a fraction (or none) of the relevant projects at that stage

Cool
atleast for me, its so easy to get lost looking at what people are doing online and all those graphs of people getting ghosted after 500 applications and start feeling the pressure haha
anyways have a good day

atleast for me, its so easy to get lost looking at what people are doing online ...
that's how it be no matter who you are. automated filters be crazy
but also as an undergrad your odds are automatically lowered
idle hare
yeah
rapid crow
so my suggestion is to lower your expectations and stop looking at forums containing job-seeking people because it's just depressing

Bro stuff like r/csmajors is really bad
rapid crow
yeah I was just about to name that one. those subreddits are terrible because they naturally filter out people who have jobs
