so i'll try my best to help you cool
cook
i personally include relevant course work
for the first point of your job
i would include a small thing about the study
- Developed react components for a user study testing reaction speeds for example
the last three points are a bit vauge tbh
i think if you included more specific goals / achievements, even if mundane it's better
because it's a bit...generic
if you add some context about the study and process it'ds be much better
b/c work is sometimes mundane
but it's important to contextualize your responsibilities and achievements
~
tbh you know it's an uphill battle rn with NG but you got this!
~
some people like the format of doing
Name | tech
i personally don't
(i'm of the opinion it throws off readability and ATS, but to each their own)
~
i see the issue
i think the issue with your bulletpoints is that you're writing as if someone knows what your project / job is abouyt
unfortunately that is not the case
your bulletpoints should have enough context
i dont have to look up your repo
or your company
"Designed a discord bot that plays Youtube Music in video calls using Discord.Py, Youtube API, and MongoDB"
or something like that
has more context than
"Developed commands for the bot using ..."
i get that you have
music recs and trivia
but
i think it's writing is a bit confusing in my opinion
"the bot" is the most pressing issue imo
if you know what i mean
~
"showcased adeptness in external APIs..."
this is a very confusing line
on one hand it could be describing the bot but idt it is
if it's describing you, i'd remove it
i dont think it's valuable to include that esp when it's a recrtuier reading it
they're basically looking for prospective people
it's what they want to see in your lines
not you explicitly saying it
~
for your userscript library, it's a cool project
the second and third line aren't very useful
while they're important
i personally dont like to include those lines
in favor of describing partricular
features you made
APIs you used
et cetra
i'd also rewrite the first line b/c userscript might not be something
a recruiter can understand
~
for the bog app
i wouldn't include the npm line
i just wouldnt
i'd also try be more
magical with the first line
give it more
zazz
and value
than
just a blog
~
also why is bait tracker below blog
your ordering should always be best to worst imo
but you have the
dates in
so i guess it'd be by time
(i personally dont include dates)
~
i'd rewrite the habit tracker first line to include the fact your writing a habit tracker
wait
why is the decont line about the fact you did it
and the first line saying
built a dynamic front end
it can't be that way
first line gottta include habit tracker
and then more details
yeah
that's all i got
you have good experience
you need to take this through a few more rewrites
you got this
