torpid geyser
#

bruhhhhh

lofty coral
#

bruh

#

no fucking way

#

actually?

novel cedar
#

yeah

crystal pivot
#

yeah typos also show lack of attention to detail

novel cedar
#

grad date is one of most important filters

lofty coral
#

wait

#

i uh

#

i think i applied to like

#

60

#

with this resume

#

like

#

all my apps

#

.

torpid geyser
#

congrats you have same amount of callbacks as me

#

with a wrong grad date

lofty coral
#

time to reapply

novel cedar
#

ok well gg

crystal pivot
#

if you have zero callbacks you should apply to more than 60

lofty coral
#

idk where to find the postings

#

i only see 60

crystal pivot
#

you also have good exp i'd cold email recruiters

unkempt galleon
crystal pivot
#

you can also filter by time posted

lofty coral
#

i have amazon return so i was only applying to better or similar

unkempt galleon
#

Also check Linkedin by time psoted yesss

crystal pivot
torpid geyser
#

ur so chilling wtf

#

nvm

lofty coral
#

naw

elfin python
# lofty coral how bad is this

contrary to what these people are saying, i don't think this really matters; most companies have a field where you enter the grad date seperately and they use that to auto reject

lofty coral
#

i want more options so i can choose my location

crystal pivot
#

if ur only applying to better or similar u have more time to research companies you want to work for

#

legit just check when their internships open up

unkempt galleon
#

ur prob not getting auto-rejected yeah but it is a red flag

lofty coral
#

oh

#

dang

torpid geyser
#

ok issue solved lmao

#

most useful resume review

lofty coral
#

is there anything else on my resume to fix

#

besides the glaring issue

elfin python
torpid geyser
#

u have amazon and twitter and amazon return

#

ur chilling

elfin python
#

but you should have more than 0 callbacks with Twitter + Amazon

lofty coral
elfin python
#

there's no twitter return

#

no i had 4 callbacks

#

3 i care about

lofty coral
#

from which companies?

#

i got 1 callback

#

but thats it

elfin python
#

i can dm in a sec

lofty coral
#

kk

elfin python
#

for your resume though

torpid geyser
#

maybe put a few more bullets

elfin python
#

i would recommend elaborating in your bullets more

lofty coral
#

o i was told 1 line per bullet

elfin python
#

and include tech stack/tech used to accomplish xyz in every bullet

lofty coral
#

less is more

elfin python
#

ill send you my resume as example

lofty coral
#

okok

elfin python
#

the thing is

unkempt galleon
lofty coral
#

keywords?

unkempt galleon
#

strongly agree w/ this

elfin python
#

when the recruiter looks at ur resume often they want to know your tech stack right

#

if you just have bullets on what business goals were achieved

#

and not the tech used

#

they dont really know what ur stack is

lofty coral
#

i included some tho

#

liek for twitter i mentioned backend

#

and Scala

#

for amazon i mentioned python, AWS ETL, and javascript

elfin python
#

on the other hand, if they see "oh this person used react heavily to do blah blah blah, they could be a good fit for this role"

#

yea lemme look again

lofty coral
#

maybe for the first twitter bullet

#

instead of "policy microservices" -> "Scala microservices"

elfin python
#

like u worked at Twitter and AWS, that's amazing and that should be your highlight rather than most of the resume being other things

#

imo (take others opinion too)

#

so i would suggest def adding more bullets/being more specific

lofty coral
#

wb rule of 3s

#

for bullet points

elfin python
#

"Eliminated bug by ... resolving bug" is also not good

#

maybe we can restructure this

torpid geyser
#

Idr like blue titles tbh

#

its distracting

#

but i am jobless

#

so take everything i say

#

with massive grain of salt

#

in fact

#

im just not gonna say anything

lofty coral
#

lmaoo

elfin python
#

"Eliminated bug with external codebase preventing beta projects from connecting to prod" is already better imo

#

than using bug twice

lofty coral
#

just saw one big

#

train of thought

#

from coypirus

elfin python
#

do u want me to send u my anon resume

lofty coral
#

yes

#

that would be helpful

#

which callbacks did u get btw

wheat comet
#

you don’t have your grad date listed

#

could be auto reject

#

ah I see everyone responded at once lol

hazy shadow
#

Is twitter even hiring interns anymore?

lofty coral
#

No
