#Fresh wanting to break to FAANG or Fortune 100
1 messages · Page 1 of 1 (latest)
I would have to agree with them
You can do this unless you know the recruiter one on one and can confirm they'll read it
FAANG recruiters get thousands of resumes and read them for average of 6 seconds
Also I would page break on the heading "Skills" so it goes on the next page and the ones for the projects on the ending of page 2 and 3 have to go on the next page
But what you can do is extract things from this resume that matches the job description you're applying to such that it's a new one page resume
I mean if you continue listening she goes on to say that they don't need all your experiences but it should be relevant and concise
But you do you
@fluid meadow What's the point of you asking for feedback here if you're not going to listen to it? 😅
@fluid meadow Maybe I just have bad reading comprehension. But it seems you were arguing about limiting your resume to one page
Ah, I see what you mean
More understandable to me
From the one-minute research I just did now, I see that even tho one page is not a rule, it's more ideal. 2-pages is fine if only you have something important to say. Just make sure that every word on your resume counts. There's no need to have 4 pages if most of it is just fluff
Bro this needs to be redone entirely
Which one 💀
Also tf is the point of posting here if you are going to literally not take any of the advice?
Maybe it’s different in Egypt, but it’s literally makes 0 sense to have every single project that you ever created on one CV then have an experience section that is extremely small in comparison .
A resume is literally supposed to be this thing that highlights your biggest accomplishments. Not tell me a life story/tell me about yourself
yeah noone's going to read ur resume after seeing the first paragraph. Keep it to 1 page
10+ projects and no relevant experience
No he’s going to send you a yt video instead of taking the advice
Where tf are you getting this info from
Are these recruiters also telling you your resume is good enough for faang?
Removing all of the sections I marked in red would be a good start, as well as shrinking down the spacing, and combining points to make it fit on 1 page.
heres a common but good template
includes the important parts: education, work experience, projects, and skills. you can add a section for leadership if it fits
Luis so orz
No one reading ur manifesto lil bro
Cause your competing against some really good people, why would I take someone who claims to be an SWE but has 0 experience in the field over the guy who has Atleast some experience at other places that have more of what I’m looking for?

Ignore the negative feedback
It’s annoying getting advice from people in an annoying way
That being said I agree w a majority of the comments, these recruiters review thousands of resumes a week, they will not make it past the first of the resume. You want to make it so that your resume can be skimmed be a recruiter and still be impressed.
ATS is also a huge part of this - this is why many people recommend latex
Feel free to Dm if you’d like any help 🙂
perch so orz
this is too long imo. I don't think a summary section is necessary, but even if you really want to keep it, it's best if you keep it short (2-3 lines, maybe?). It currently has a lot of fluff. Like eliminate fluff, same with the unique section. I'd ideally eliminate both the sections entirely, as well as a lot of the other stuff like some other comments have suggested, to make it one page. But at the end of the day if you don't want to, it's up to you. Plus also (I may be wrong) it looks like you are in egypt, maybe things are different in egypt and the advice here is more US centric? But yeah, I guess I don't have any more to say than what's already been said
hes such a cutie
from someone in faang + big tech, this resume needs a lot of work 🙂
first page should basically be removed
remove soft skills
fix spacing
be one page,
two pages is ok, if u were incredibly experienced
but you arent
wecu sighting 

How do I get big tech like you bro

How do I get big tech like you bro
At the end of the day it’s your resume so do want you want
Thanks I appreciate the advice. I’m going to add a summary, key skills, and what I do best to lengthen mine to 2-3 pages
Please don’t lol
Unless you are an experienced dev keep your resume to 1 page
Hi, this is something you can express in your existing bullet points. Repeating yourself after each doesn't serve a purpose and makes your resume difficult to parse through quickly. Making use of templates like Jake's resume are great, I'm not sure what issues you've seen, but thousands of people at FAANG+ have gotten offers using them.
Please keep in mind the average time recruiters spend looking at a resume is just 7.4 seconds. In 7.4 seconds, it seems to impossible to extract any useful information from your resume, especially when you have 4 pages to split that across.
You can look around on LinkedIn for people with profiles which include resumes at companies you’re aiming for.
das a lot of pages
Why did u ask for feedback from a discord channel then? Do you think this place is crawling with recruiters?
To be fair
In other countries, CVs are more common
CVs != resume though
in north america, 1-2 pagers are more common
You asked for feedback from a discord channel full of uni students and new grads and get upset when people who aren't recruiters are giving you advice
What did you expect?
Hmm
💤 I'll just follow what recruiters in my area say, and keep moving on

I've been just told 1-2 pages so I'll stick to that 🤷♂️
Don’t do multiple page resumes, as per 99% of employees resumes on linkedin, showing their experience and what companies they were accepted into, and instead do one page resumes, as per the same employees on linkedin
Of course, one second
undergrads who still got faang/big tech before you did (even with one page resumes)
incredible!

I just watched this video and tldr yes it's a short amount of time but they are scanning for very specific things which aren't transparent (?)
I've had recruiters tell me that if they can't find stuff within a short amount of time they move on. It is what it is
I mean for the record the ppl giving any resume feedback in this server is purely voluntary
"yet none of them indulged in my post"
and I'm saying that ppl giving any resume feedback in this server is purely voluntary
Bro is delulu
Remove the picture lol
wait bro graduated in 2021 where's the work experience
not clear to me, career shifting from what?
also fundamentally if you're not eligible for new grad roles and you have no work experience the resume isn't going to save you
bro PLENTY of people in this server have worked at FAANG and they are all telling u the same thing lmao
bro doesnt want to listen
bro you think i'm reading your paragraphs, don't you have a degree in ECE?
new grad roles are usually gated to people graduating in that year
apart from writing this resume what else have you been doing the 2+ years since you've graduated
this is actually pretty impressive
is ossu comprehensive
you essentially taught yourelf a full cs degree which is impressive
have you started applying to jobs?
in my personal opinion, my first thought of seeing ur resume was "there's a lot of stuff, i really dont want to go through all of that" - take what u will from that
Omar keep the picture
And make sure to add more of your experience
I don’t think it’s large enough
If you have more projects be sure to put them
The bigger the resume the bigger the experience
Also the picture helps you stand out
\s
Wait why would you remove the soft skills
Don’t
Keep them 
Once you apply to faang and get into all of them, including the ones you don’t even apply too let me know
i dont think you have enough pages. the longer the resume the better!
you cannot have my linkedin for obvious reasons
you can join the googler or roblox discord servers and see my verified role 🙂
Idk where you got your info, but gl breaking into big tech - no one wants to read a 4 page resume filled with fluff and projects. 1 page is the norm - showcasing your skills and achievements in a concise manner. Before dismissing what I say, consider that I go to Georgia Tech. Not trying to be mean, just being frank.
bro snuck in the last part 💀
just do 1 page big bro. recruiters aren’t reading your manifesto
hi 
what if I like manifestos
this has to be a bit
That goes on for this long?
This whole thread must be a troll lmao
why don't you just submit your resume to faang and find out then
Omar, when ppl get into big tech ur recruiter will resume review you when you leave.
most ppl in this server have gotten into big tech
and are relaying information they got on their resume reviews
im not engaging with this troll anymore
😭
And yet you’re asking for feedback in a server full of students/new grads (some in FAANG internships)… not really sure what you’re looking for here then
omar is probs at radix and is just super bored
gonna start focusing on projects vs. leetcode 😔
watching an object detection course
nah been slacking on projects
gotta get that up
Oh
im pretty comfy with leetcode
FullStack?
gonna try to yeah
Oh this is the resume thing
LMAO
Try to hit him up with your resume and see what he has to say 🙂
@merry plume
yo yo yo
I don't think so honestly. Just make sure you write a proper message in the note
One thing I will say about cutting down to 1-2 pages (ideally 1). This information doesn’t come from the a bunch of new grads who know nothing. Most of it is relayed from T10 university career advisors from what they are told directly from recruiters from FAANG+ companies. This isn’t made of information in the US. It is the standard for a reason
@fluid meadow
this is the best resume ive ever seen
agreed
moreso shame on people like you flexing your credentials and adding nothing to the discussion
dude got his advice already don't think your thinly veiled flexing goes unseen 
if @fluid meadow is too stubborn to change anything from dozens of people offering apt suggestion then no further help is needed and this should just be closed out imo
Ask these recruiters to refer u and skip the resume screen
- walmart
- amazon
- c1
@normal sky
If u don't want to take feedback from ppl who never done hiring before, why are u here?

Exactly
LOL
I'm actually quite curious how many FAANG+ resume screen he has passed since he's too stubborn
Wait really
Why do they do that
that depends on the company
also its not like this is literally a point that people in this thread kept going at
quick question have you been referred to multiple companies before?
cause it literally varies between where you were referred to
i have no further questions
omar your resume was good as is
I’m also confused because what I said is the same as everyone else lol
EXACTLY
Hi omar! I would love to see the changes you have made, would you be able to post them? I need to see what changes were made and see if I can apply it to my own resume and take notes.
Old enough 😏
I’m just curious as to the state of your resume after all of the consideration and thought behind the criticism in this post!
With all the jokes and unprofessionalism, I genuinely am curious to see what changes you’ve made
What was his feedback on your resume
If the senior didn’t read the summary and people here are telling you the summary is useless then I wonder what the best course of action is 🤔
@manic sentinel this guy is just coping hard. A bunch of people have said valuable information and he’s just not listening. He thinks he knows more from people he’s talked to then people with actual industry experience on what works and doesn’t. At this point it’s not worth our time to help him anymore. We’ve said what we should and if he doesn’t listen that’s on him now
amazing resume from a future faang janitor
@fluid meadow if you really want to keep that summary, the strat would be to push all your experience and education on to the first page, then put summary and selected projects on the 2nd page, in that sense it's a 1 page resume (recruiters can quickly skim your info from the 1st page, and HMs can dig deeper into the 2nd page if they want)
To be honest with you, if they didn't give feedback on those parts the only explanation is that they thought extremely negatively of it. People don't want to tear into others that they just met and potentially start a confrontation, argument, or hurt their feelings, so it is better for them to just plainly say it was not useful and they skipped it.
This should be a social cue you should have picked up on, and you can't trust what people say just because they are a recruiter or hiring manager if they don't trust you enough to be honest with you. As you've shown before, the first impression of the resume matters a lot on how recruiters spend time on it, and if the first page is full of useless information, why would they go to the second?
Please keep in mind that people in this server are not outright malicious like you have come to imply. With anonymity online, there comes a kind of honesty that can seem brutal to some. Like someone else said, if you want to learn about fishing ask the fisherman not the fish. The honest advice of dozens of people who passed FAANG resume screens is infinitely better than a couple recruiters or hiring managers not telling like it is.
i’m actually really happy with this change
one critique is the spacing between stuff is a lot for a few lines
like the gap between GPA/Grade and education title
want to squeeze in as much as you can in the first page
No I definitely agree, I’m commenting more on the inconsistency vs. tightening
Yeah definitely too tight
I think there’s a sweet spot that we can reach
Bro. 99.9% of people who passed FAANG and big tech resume screens here (and believe me, there are a LOT) have a concise, one-page resume. You have two. What do you think should be the best path forward for yourself then?
But you don’t have any experience to express so why would you not make it 1 page. Even people with 4 internships keep it to one page
Also there are a ton of unnecessary bullet points in your project descriptions
That could be condensed
Nah longer resume is better
Also add a cover letter for every job you apply to
Minimum 1k words
imo removing the picture makes it more professional
It’s not about concise. You literally have things that nobody cares about or is redundant
For example for the chess project. No one cares you documented it in Microsoft word
fair, but at least line up the picture so it looks in place, it's a bit out of place rn
For people who can read between the lines, you don't have to claim it nor bring it up, it's obvious. You are also participating in the "fallacy fallacy", where you assume finding a bias or fallacy in the argument preconcludes that it's false. Instead of arguing about authority and sources, just look at the evidence of what passes FAANG resume screens.
Like I said before, you can people who work at FAANG on LinkedIn and from there find their resume if it is publically posted. That is what people here pay attention to, that is what they use in their own resume and have passed FAANG screens with, and that is where their advice comes from. They don't have to provide a source for every single observation.
There are plenty of blogs available online that teach you how to build a resume. This blog is not about advice regarding building your…
One quick google search
There are countless resumes people post here on this server for review that are capable of passing the initial screens I highly suggest you look at those and modify yours accordingly.
Dude it’s the standard
All American universities say resumes should be 1 page (their source the companies)
Until you’re a senior dev or something then 2 pages is fine
Fine me one American university that doesn’t say that
So your logic is “1000 people do this but 1 person doesn’t, therefore it must not be true”?
And it’s for interns and grads
Because that’s what students are
Looking for interns or new grad roles
But you aren’t the exception you keep referring to
waterloo grads with 6 internships keep their resume under 2 pages
The exception is someone with a ton of open source, startup, research, citations, etc. Extra project is not
You're treating this like it's an investigation or scientific endeavour in trying to reach a 100% truth, this is a waste of time. Simply find the common elements in resumes that pass FAANG screens and apply that to your own.
Not even 2 pages. All my classmates keep ours to one page max.
Yes, to be honest you're wasting the time of everyone participating here.
Says you should have 1 page for every 10 YOE
I am Waterloo with (soon to be) six internships. My resume is one page. I can tell you for a fact every single one of my classmate in my cohort has theirs as one page.
their resume on linkedin and github
This resume will 100% get you into faang
I don’t understand why a one-page resume is so off putting to you. Recruiters aren’t there to read your life story or befriend you. They’re a complete stranger glancing over your qualifications to see if you’re a fit for the job they’re hiring for. It’s a purely business transaction that emphasizes hard skills and concise metrics well over long-winded fluff. I’m sorry if you thought otherwise before, but that’s just how recruiting is in the US.
Recruiters do read resumes
@fluid meadow To be clear, chukatiarops is joking there.
Usually somewhere after OA and ATS
Maybe initially it’s ATS but it will get read at some point before interviews
And plenty of people get rejected for bad resumes after being read
how about all the new grads with 20 years of professional work experience though
But you aren’t any of those 3 things
bruh
You aren’t applying for grad school. You aren’t applying for a fellowship. You aren’t a non corporate applicant. And it says 2 pages if you have a significant amount of EXPERIENCE!
@fluid meadow Again you are doing this in trying to find counterexamples to statements made universally
u def trolling
Yes and the point I’m making is yes there are exceptions but your resume is not one
He’s gunning for the OpenAI position
openai discord mod makes more than canadian faang senior
u should know what an oa is if u claim to be knowledgeable abt the hiring process.
openai janitor
open janitor getting more equity than the average canadian dev
Wonder what the barista makes
392 comments is insane, this thread should’ve been closed long ago
Exactly. I have 8, but I still keep mine to one page 🙂
think about it as a comedic routine, makes it much funnier
this is so funny; you should have more than one page if you have experience -> but you don't have any experience -> yes that's why i have more than one page
Nah, there's no point in doing so
Lmfao
I swear this whole thread is meant to be a joke
Maybe we all have fallen into his trap
same reason we still think of radix simp
At the very least try and cut it down to two pages, you have a lot of good projects but the what makes you unique, academic writing skills, soft skills, and traits seems uncessary
your resume should always be show not tell, show that you have the traits through your projects and work
we're currently 408 messages in
someone make me a market on total messages before this is closed
this is the worst fucking resume ive seen ever in this server
greatest comedy routine since radix simp billionaires row on 160k convo
jesus
It’s over
100% ngmi
@fluid meadow ngmi
just give up for now tbh if u dont listen to advice after posting an absolute dogwater resume
jesus christ the whole first page is fucking useless
same with the second
you add your image for no reason, it's badly formatted, etc.
are you even trying to get a job or is this some LARP troll
why the hell do you expect to get a job with a 4 page resume, I mean geez honestly
you think a single FAANG recruiter will look at that?
breaking FAANG first year - where's your high school internships? Competitive programming experience? Great high quality in depth projects?
You have none
just a bunch of bullshit "Soft skills" that no one gives 2 fucks about on a resume
absolutely hilarious
thanks for giving me a great laugh today man
bro this guy graduated college two years ago
Sometimes, if people have doubts that you are stupid/joke, it is better to keep your mouth shut or else you will prove it to them.
If you find this a joke? let it be funny without letting us know of your existence or else you will ruin it.
But if it is not? then what made it funny is your existence because you are a joke of yourself.
Sweetie, I suggest for you to go play somewhere else because you were never invited nor respected here.
but, but #1142760649164865617 message
yeah im 15 and ive gotten a job offer before so maybe you should, yk, take some advice
and everyone els here as well
besides u

okay bye thanks for the entertainment 👍
have fun being jobless

This is prob the best resume I’ve ever seen
My question is why you are only going for FAANG with no relevant work experience

Yeah good luck with that homie g
Other companies also have different hiring standards
Man this resume is so good. I'm glad you put a picture on there.
It's not a one size fits all
can confirm neclo is cracked
Now they know how goofy you look fr right off the bat
Yeah but neclo is way smarter than you
He can understand how 4 pages is moronic
Resume screen based on attractiveness
Don't underestimate critical thinking, I got a B+ in that class
I failed the first test
Cuz then you'd be bullying a kid

your resume is the shit here lmao
I'm not cleaning it up for you
You gotta be your own shit paper sometimes bro

"For graduate school, fellowship, and non-corporate applications" none of thsoe apply to you
