u basically put every technology out there in your skills section

#

thats pretty misleading

#

no way u know em all

#

idk, i mean the guy went to grad school for cs

#

he's had some time to learn those skills

stable yacht
#

every language and skill known to man haha

floral herald
#

Try to dabble in everything

#

So I should remove things that I've used in < 2 projects

clear steppe
#

Have you had work experience yet?

floral herald
#

No

clear steppe
#

How much of those skills do you feel comfortable with?

floral herald
#

Everything except Blockchain

clear steppe
#

I just ask because that’s a very wide stack of skills

stable yacht
#

its too much lol

#

i think any recruiter worth 2 cent is gonna be like 🤔

#

u can see how many of us just in here alone are like 🤔

clear steppe
#

I’m surprised to see experience with big data with no work experience

stable yacht
#

esp without professional work experience

#

exactly

floral herald
#

So .. I gotta take out things I know to make it more believeable

#

So what do you recommend removing

#

For a software engineer role

rough path
#

u "know" but do you really know em?

floral herald
#

I have a specialization in Databases Management

#

Im not saying im proficient in each one

rough path
#

that doesnt sound like it contains blockchain crypto stuff

#

or cloud

#

or IaC

#

or big data

#

do u see where were going with this

floral herald
#

im not on trial here, so do you have any tips

clear steppe
rough path
#

have you read the doc i linked

clear steppe
#

My tip is to think about what job you want and which skills you are actually proficient in. From your resume you seem like a game dev, full stack dev, data engineer, cloud engineer, MLE and AI, and blockchain dev

floral herald
#

Ive been applying to full stack dev jobs, software engineer jobs

#

I'm looking at the doc right now and changing mine to use Jake's resume and following the guide will have done by tonight

#

I removed the blockchain related information on the resume

#

I've been applying to 75% software engineering jobs, 15% full stack jobs, 5% cloud, 5% mle/ai

#

So I kept those bits in there

#

At this point I'm desperate, but if removing the things that make my resume sound unbelieveable helps my chances, ill do it

#

So I should remove the gameunity project and the smartpredict?

stable yacht
#

a lot more digestable yeah

#

which AWS services did you use?

#

dont need to say “Angular/Angular JS”

#

would make React and React Native its own thing

#

same with C and C++

floral herald
#

which services for what

#

Gotcha

stable yacht
#

which ones do u have experience with

floral herald
#

I used Ec2, S3, Rekognition

stable yacht
#

should include that in the bullet points where applicable

floral herald
#

Ok

#

No summary section?

stable yacht
#

naw

#

have u done any sort of extracurriculars while in school? or u just been going to class and then going home

floral herald
#

Just been going to class and then going home

#

Had no time

sharp field
#

You have the same project listed twice

For Twitter sentiment analysis how did you build a model? Did you use pre labeled data and deep learning model, analyze accuracy, then try classification on unlabeled data? If so deep learning and natural language understanding would be good to put on your resume
