#

Put education to top since it’s Waterloo + good gpa?

vital mortar
#

uhhh gpa might fall soon

#

lmao

real ivy
#

Also idk how the ATS works but is saying FE/FS intern good or bad for the ats

#

As opposed to SWE

vital mortar
#

i think its ok

#

ats only cares about metric and stuff

real ivy
#

You have a good resume man

#

Idk what to tell you

#

Probably a grad year thing

vital mortar
#

but i see

#

ppl from uw

#

land cali first second coop

#

i didn't even get interviews

#

😢

#

i mean to be fair i improved my resume when I started applying for second internship

#

but I tried applying for summer internships through linkedin starting around mid dec i think and got only 1 interview

real ivy
#

You applied way too late

#

There’s ur problem

#

There are a couple companies hiring now but the majority of recruiting wrapped up by dec

vital mortar
#

prob (summer is off cycle for me, so that was just to test my resume)

#

Thanks tho

real ivy
#

The problem with summer being off cycle is that summer is about 80% of the total internships out there

#

Many good companies simply don’t offer any intern position except during summer

vital mortar
#

o i guessed so

#

thats is another reason i started applying for summer

#

but i was too late ig

#

i mean there are still a lot of opportunities for fall

#

(I hope at least)

#

i was also thinking that i could delay my fall internship so that I become a third year before trying for next internship

#

but idk about that

#

i just hope i can land smth cool for fall

#

i would like to work for cool startups too

strong snow
#

Yeah this is quite nice

vital mortar
#

anything else?

strong snow
#

Content looks good

vital mortar
#

ok Maang here i come lol

vital mortar
#

but the margins look bigger

#

so i will have to reduce content 😩

#

or did u mean switch education to top?

real ivy
#

I meant switch education to top

#

The margins aren’t much bigger

#

You get less whitespace on the borders

#

I was able to fit a lot of text on a page

vital mortar
#

ok if yall recommend switching to jake's format i will, tbh i didn't wanna waste time switching to end up with pretty similar looking result

#

i will fs, but I also wanna do anything/everything possible to land a super cool internship this time around

#

should i copy paste everything to jake's template tho

#

fall 23, and then summer 24

#

ok then i won't, i will just swap education

#

uhh i think i can land an internship

#

thats not an issue

#

company might end up being really small

#

but yeah technically u need to do 5 i think

#

to graduate

#

but special conditions call special measures

#

covid they reduced it to 4

#

or smth

#

fr? i thought a lot of the bigger companies recruit throughout the year

#

like linkedin

#

and even cali startups?

#

okk so I will switch education
there is nothing more i can do rt
whatever happens happens
(and grind leetcode 😩 )
