i would put the ds/ml and especially the graphics project in your resume if these are the roles you’re aiming for

#

also this isn’t related to bullet pts but i would consider swapping the position of skills and awards because putnam t500 and the icpc will look good to quant firms

#

also your coursework is a little long, maybe consider cutting some of the courses (ex: advanced linear algebra, advanced intro to probability, etc). pretty much everyone applying to qt has taken these courses so it doesn’t add much to your resume and takes up unnecessary space/time for the interviewer

#

your experience is kinda lacking i think cause your first exp isn’t flushed out much and your 2nd exp is kinda unrelated to qswe/qt, so i think you should add more bullet points to your first experience if you can

#

also i would split the TA position and the research position instead of putting in under the same uni name and add any metrics/numbers to your research position if you have any, or you can maybe make up some rough estimates (?)

#

i think as long as you go to a good school you can land qt interviews, given your high gpa + ds/ml stuff + putnam t500 and then after that it’s all up to you in actually passing the interviews

#

idk about swe or qswe, it doesn’t seem like you have a ton of exp listed on your resume but maybe icpc carries? no clue

#

i would have the same resumes because you don’t have a ton of experience, but if you want to make separate ones you could do that if you can make sure you don’t have a ton of white space

#

yes

#

the first bullets of the projects seem longer than they need to be so i think u can
