@woven sinew Very sorry if too many people have asked, but if you're willing, can you tell me what you think?

From qiqi's stream

#

LMMAAOOOOO

#

I was there when you posted your resume

#

I was talking to you in chat telling you to apply

daring knoll
#

oh fr???

#

yeah i been applying, as everyone said, but im trying to up the resume with the suggestions and add the new stuff

#

very helpful advice from everyone

cold iron
#

Remove 'spearheading' and any inline bold formatting (unless it emphasizes something that might otherwise be overlooked)

#

what does (92%) mean at the top not familiar w/ canada. Maybe just leave it as 4.0/4.0? unless 92% is really good

daring knoll
#

85 and above is 4.0,

cold iron
#

some of ur revalent courses arent that relavent, like ethics lol but I guess its fine to keep

cold iron
#

the rest looks really good

daring knoll

#

like something that isn't obvious when looking at it thats impressive/should be focused on more. I think if you have something like that it will be obvious to bold it

#

most of the time inline bolding is dumb though

daring knoll
#

i understand

cold iron
#

like bolding the 10% and the A/B tested and the 72 vids etc all looks dumb

daring knoll
#

yep, but if thats the case, what deserves to be bolded you think?

#

the idea was that every metric or technology usage gets bolded, but if its dumb, ill reconsider

cold iron
#

I wouldnt have bolded anything, maybe the 1.6M and 1 billion visited if you really wanted

daring knoll
#

i did once, unsure if he wants to see the same one

cold iron
#

you will definitely find something if you apply ur resume is really good, esp the first experience

daring knoll
#

i hope so, but no responses yet

#

do you think ageism might be a factor here or is that copium?

cold iron
#

do you mean like u being a freshman/sophmore?

daring knoll
#

not my age, the age of my first exp

#

like me being a sophomore and has an exp of 8 years

#

i read online that some companies frown on that

cold iron
#

I think they will realize its not really 8 years of like working at a company experience

#

idk though

#

u could increase start date

daring knoll
#

but then thats dishonest, and what start date would constitute as 'ok'?

cold iron
#

When did you make your like biggest project?

#

was it 2015 or like 2020 pandemic time

daring knoll
#

each project grew in size

cold iron
#

hmm I'm not sure then

daring knoll
#

so my biggest one of 2 years finished like some months ago

daring knoll
cold iron
#

you're a sophmore so it might be that companies want juniors tbh, but university of toronoto is really good I think?

#

So I feel like you should find some stuff

daring knoll
#

alr, thank you

cold iron
#

good luck !

broken palm
#

A billion visits are required for 1.6M. That's insane. you must have gotten a decent cut of this right? Seems more lucrative than any SWE role.

#

Your bullet points are impressive but kind of a headache to read

#

You need to tighten the sentence structure and focus more on technical achievement

#

Try to fit everything into XYZ format

#

and try to make the majority of your bullet points technical especially the game design

#

have one bullet points for the revenue figures at the end it will look really impressive

#

and mention Roblox idk why not mentioning that
