Even with not including my education grad date, is it still obvious I'm a first year?

#

Yeah, but I'm most likely not going to get a job through waterlooworks though

#

i've put most of my focus into applying externally

#

maybe 3 weeks ago

#

maybe 4

#

mmmm

#

Do remote positions still require visas?

#

I see, well I guess next year is my year then

#

yeah I got rejected from wealthsimple

#

0 interviews on waterloo works?

wet forge
#

just lower it to 2024 or 2025

#

cause u still need it for parsing reasons

#

One of the main reason is grad date

#

lie about grad date

#

Don’t do this with ww btw

upbeat palm

is this something very common for people to do

#

Know the risks

#

U have a cracked resume, are u only applying to big n?

upbeat palm
#

idk what big n is but I think i trolled my waterlooworks

#

i went basically cali and high-tech toronto

#

for the most part

#

no interviews :c

lost sky
#

I think u should have applied to them outside of ww

upbeat palm
#

#

either i get lucky externally now or get something 2nd or 3rd round
