@hasty kindle post screenshot pls

#

and r u international?

hasty kindle
#

nah 🦅 USA 🦅

#

Should be Education -> Skills -> Experience -> Projects

#

Education on top if you're a student

#

Couple of weird things that may be tripping up ATS

#
  • get rid of the team name after company name
  • who graduates in march? put may or spring

#

I haven't applied with this resume yet, the previous one was Education --> Experience --> Skills --> Projects. An engineer reccomended I change it to this format cuz he says he doesn't give af ab school if I have experience

#

I am on quarter system, so I finish March

Your bullet points are janky and reek of GPT but it shouldn't matter since your resume says "Apple" and "Amazon"

#

dogesmile ; your resume is good. you not getting any callbacks is giving me chills

just nitpicking here

What's bad about the bulletpoints

tame plinth
#

it's fine it gets the point across

#

"engineered an efficient system" and "innovatively designed" sounds like something GPT would say

hasty kindle
#

Nah I read on some blog that adding adjectives makes me sound smarter

cosmic wing
#

You have no metrics

#

That's the main issue at first glance

tame plinth
#

better to have metrics

hasty kindle
#

How do I make up metrics

cosmic wing
#

And agree no need to go overboard on big adjectives, focus on your impact

tame plinth
hasty kindle
#

Mhmm doesn't really apply to these projects tho

tame plinth
#

And get rid of the team name in front of company name... you might be fucking yourself with that

cosmic wing
#

Yeah like how much did your apple thing improve stability by, etc...

tame plinth
#

when a bot filters by "Apple" and you have "Apple - bla bla bla bla bla"

hasty kindle
#

I mean for amazon there was no visualizer and now there is, technically that is like 100% improvment

tame plinth
#

idk how smart the systems are but it may get tripped up

cosmic wing
#

great 100% it is then

hasty kindle
#

Ok I will try adding in some metrics

#

But it just sounds very bullshit to me in my head but thats probably because ik its cap

tame plinth
#

And don't bold random shit it's kinda annoying to read

hasty kindle
#

A recruiter told me she liked it cuz they look for keywords

tame plinth

#

So shit like "improved readability by X%"

tame plinth
#

you can bold tech/frameworks

hasty kindle
#

for example this bulletpoint right - Migrated frontend from Angular to React and implemented server authentication, improving system performance
and security

#

before there was no authentication at all, and because of that u actually couldn't make API calls. So if I said "improving system performance
and security by 100%" does that make sense? I feel like spamming 100% makes it sound like cap

tame plinth
#

OK I see

hasty kindle
#

Because Angular package dependencies broke CSS

tame plinth
#
Modernized the frontend and engineered server authentication by migrating codebase from Angular to React and implemented SSL and OAuth components using Typescript to enable access to API service
#

idk something like this

#

those are two different things so you could separate

#
- Modernized frontend components and extended compatibility with CSS libraries by fascilitating codebase migration (100+ components) from Angular to React
- Enabled interoperability with API service by engineering server authentication using SSL/OAuth in Typescript
#

for example

#

you fill the details

hasty kindle
#

I see

#

thanks

#

this is a mouthful huh

#

Enabled interoperability by authenticating the API Gateway using Amazon authentication which required creating new domains in Route53 and implementing CORS in the frontend, CDK, and Lambda.
