What job are you applying for?

wild monolith
#

So web dev I guess

#

Last interview I had was back in Feb, went pretty well, but they rejected me because it was a full-time role and I'm still in school (I was willing to switch to part time school) ...

#

... why interview me in the first place if they were gonna use that shitty reason

You don’t graduate until next year?

#

And you’re looking part time?

wild monolith
#

I apply to both full time (junior/entry level) and internship roles

#

I actually did get a full time job last year but got laid off 6-7 weeks in so it was worthless experience and I left it off my resume

Would you be able to do full time?

move Odroid to the bottom above Music App; add results to ur bulletpoints because many of them only describe what u did, and not their outcomes

#

example:

Developed a high-performance REST API [...] for the parsing of invoices [...]

ok. why. what was the result?

#

Developed a high-performance REST API using ASP.NET MVC to automate PDF to XLSX conversion, saving <x> work hours with each operation
passive forme

Automated PDF to XLSX conversion, saving <x> work hours with each operation by building a REST API with ASP.NET MVC
active forme

result is in bold (i made it up; replace with ur own)

Any reason why odroid should be moved to bottom?

#

above music app, just my opinion in terms of impact

#

er, not impact; demonstrable skills

#

you talk more about the actual technologies used in your other projects, but you have more opportunity to create results for Odroid

#

if you can talk more about the results and how u obtained them with that project, there's no reason why it shouldn't dominate that section

#

but until it does, imo it's second last (other ppl may disagree tho so grain of salt here)
