edit: I was trying to update my resume at top, but I can't reattach file anymore. Please see very bottom for new resume.

Thanks in advance! 🙌
Target: Entry-level job at a company that actively works on scalable systems, I'm thinking of big banks. I don't think I'll get a tech job in this market, but I hope one day I can re-enter a Big-N company. Will apply to new grad positions if possible.
Concerns:

  1. For my most recent experience. I'm actually an apprentice, but I wish to omit that to keep up with the job market.
  2. I dropped out of grad school to keep up with job demands, but I'm planning to re-apply back. Advisor said it should be a smooth process. Will there be any issues with companies trying to verify? Will they even verify? I wish to keep it, but I'm not sure.

i dont understand the point of the second bullet point, or at least the metrics you included. Are you saying you improved those metrics or what?

of two 5+ years services
feel like this bit can be cut

Thanks for the input! 2nd bullet point, I was trying to say I introduced sufficient load into the service. I realize that's unnecessary now

i believe ur at amazon so i cant imagine too much about what that blanked out space says at the 4th bullet. Feel like it can just say “Reduced operational burden by XY% by removing unnecessary fatal logs and refactored unit/integration tests to be more deterministic and reloable”

#

Delivered the ability to process jobs concurrently…
im assuming via Java?

is executor service a java library? idk why im thinking it was an amazon-specific thing

#

either way i dont think its particularly important to mention them specifically . i think the average recruiter isnt even gonna know what that even is or means

#

i think the way u described it is fine, can maybe just include that u used Java though

#

Yes it's a Java library. Sounds good, will add in Java
