No summary

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:06 AM

#

merry dawn No summary

so white space > summary?

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:06 AM

#

nah full white space with stuff if you can

#

but if you can’t hmm

#

leadership / clubs >> summary

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:08 AM

#

merry dawn leadership / clubs >> summary

but then what's the purpose of the summary if it's not being read first

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:08 AM

#

summaries are wastes of space

#

no one reads them if ur going for swe

#

maybe if ur like an actor or something

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:09 AM

#

I see 💀

#

The problem is by the time I can fill in the rest of the resume application season over

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:10 AM

#

damn 😔

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:10 AM

#

well apart from the summary you see anything I can improve?

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:11 AM

#

the results part of your experience

#

both of them are really vague

#

i would quantify the improvement of grades in the first bullet point

#

if you can

#

and the second one idk

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:13 AM

#

yea for the first one I could add some more

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:13 AM

#

like “heightened interest and improved coding ability” is fluffy without stats to back it up

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:13 AM

#

yea

#

I honestly just put resulting in cause I was told to show the impact of my work

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:14 AM

#

orchid gyro I honestly just put resulting in cause I was told to show the impact of my work

right yeah

#

it’s good formatting

#

just need numbers for it

#

to quantify the impact

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:14 AM

#

but there's not really any measurables to a coding competition so idk what to put

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:14 AM

#

right

#

second one is a tough one

#

maybe rewording would fix

#

first project you used “transformed” twice

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:15 AM

#

oh didn't catch that

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:15 AM

#

third bullet point instead of putting a period do …X, enhancing…

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:16 AM

#

alright

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:16 AM

#

maybe for the first bullet point have a metric that states how much you improved analysis time vs. without the tool

#

also ur second project all ur bullets action words start with E

#

that’s not like

#

too serious but

#

it’s just off putting to me lol

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

😭

#

nah ur right

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:17 AM

#

all really good bullet points tho

#

that’s how they should look

#

really strong second project

#

wait

#

is that a project or job

#

did you have users

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:18 AM

#

project

#

nope just a survey

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:18 AM

#

ahh i see

#

okay as long as you can back up those bullets

#

very nice

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:19 AM

#

yup thanks

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:19 AM

#

i think you misspelled IntelliJ

#

but i don’t think you should have it anyway

#

IDEs don’t matter

#

but yeah really nice

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:19 AM

#

So what else should I put in developer tools

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 4:20 AM

#

if that’s what you know there’s not much you can do to improve it

#

maybe add git

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 4:21 AM

#

ok added

#

wait let me ask what did you have as experience before your first internship

merry dawn Sep 28, 2023, 5:14 AM

#

#

this was my resume before applying this year

#

the internship on there doesn’t really count

#

it was a local non profit

orchid gyro Sep 28, 2023, 7:41 PM

#

merry dawn it was a local non profit

I see

#

but the other 2 are impressive tho

#

idk if it makes a difference but should I add calc in my coursework?
