#Rising Junior aiming for QT/QSWE/SWE

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
