outer raven
#

oh lmao

dusty snow
#

Grainger CS is def doable in 3 years

outer raven
#

yea i just had a bad last semester so its gonna be extra difficult

dusty snow
#

but if u were CS + it would be easier

outer raven
#

yea

dusty snow
#

What classes are u takin next sem

#

Tbh it only gets harder with classes like 374 and 341 421

outer raven
#

rn im registered for cs 361, shs 222, cs 233, math 257

dusty snow
#

225?

outer raven
#

wanted to add a 4xx but theyre all full

#

did that last sem

dusty snow
#

Oh so ur ahead

outer raven
#

yeah a bit

#

i alr did 233 and math 257 but i got a D and F respectively so im redoing it šŸ’€

dusty snow
#

just use the course explorer notification thing to get a spot thats how i got a spot ina lot of classes

dusty snow
#

but idt u should take 400 level classes yet if thats how u did in those 2 classes

rapid sequoia
#

id leave it as software engineer lol

outer raven
#

or i can stay at 13 hours idk

dusty snow
#

dont take 374 yet u gonna get fucked over if u did that bad in 233 and 257

#

Its a super hard class if u take the A section, B section is easier but still hard

outer raven
#

i just didnt do the work for those classes, i didnt actually struggle w the material

#

had a surgery and missed 2 weeks of class

#

then i got lazy

#

dumb ik but yeah

dusty snow
#

I actually had surgery the semester I took 374 and it was hard asf on me

outer raven
#

oof

#

yeah idk then

#

could try for a time conflict override with 357

dusty snow
#

I think cs 361, shs 222, cs 233, math 257 is good for next semester for u

dusty snow
outer raven
#

they dont accept concurrent?

#

rip

dusty snow
#

No

#

Also if u got a D in 257 its prob best to retake it before 357

outer raven
#

i got like 90 something in the 233 final

dusty snow
#

Did they put u on probation?

outer raven
#

but i did no labs hence the D

#

yes

dusty snow
#

Yeah dont push it too much if ur on probation then

outer raven
#

ok

#

yea

dusty snow
#

U can easily get overwhelmed and get kicked out just aim to graduate in 4 years

outer raven
#

i was planning to do a 400 over next summer maybe

#

like 421 or something

dusty snow
#

421 is a hard class but idk how it is over summer

#

I took it last sem

outer raven
#

i heard it wasnt that bad over the summer

dusty snow
#

Oh ok

#

take cs 411 or 441 easy gpa boost if u want

outer raven
#

so would u recommend 2026 or 2027 on resume? regardless of whether or not ill do it

dusty snow
#

just put 2026 i guess change to 2027 later

#

Idt companies care that much

outer raven
#

lilac siren

ok bro it’s not that deep

olive atlas
#

shell otter
outer raven
#

I get paid directly from the employer

#

My other project pays me in devex

#

The flight simulator one

latent ore
#

for rblx exp, who do you get paid by?

#

cause i read above and its confusing

outer raven
#

I’m not giving robux bro WazowskiStare

latent ore
#

hes going to fail a bcg

shell otter
#

For experience I’d put something like ā€œRoblox Community Gameā€

latent ore
#

they also go to your employer

rapid sequoia
#

this dude johnny is on his knees for big companies

latent ore
#

man im not taking that bs

rapid sequoia
#

for flight simulator

latent ore
#

wait

outer raven
#

That’s something else

latent ore
#

why are you epstine?@median valley

outer raven
#

That’s my personal project

rapid sequoia
#

u should split them up

#

one where u get paid for devex

#

and the other one should just be a project

latent ore
#

bro this is the complete wrong look 😭

rapid sequoia
#

imo or smth

outer raven
latent ore
#

yeah imo, remove rblx dont risk anything over a lie

outer raven
#

do you have any suggestions on what to replace it with

latent ore
#

its good that you do have that experience and imo that speaks for itself

rapid sequoia
#

could he write down

latent ore
#

holy stop trolling

rapid sequoia
#

Roblox Developer
Self employed

latent ore
outer raven
shell otter
#

You worked for someone right for the Roblox game

outer raven
#

Yes

shell otter
#

Like you can put the game dev group or the game itself as the employer

rapid sequoia
rapid sequoia
#

Yo me and tovar30 are trolling its over

latent ore
#

rapid sequoia
#

latent ore
rapid sequoia
#

oh

#

yeah just put slap battles bruh

#

i dont think its that serious

shell otter
#

ā€œSlap Games Studiosā€

rapid sequoia
#

bro please dont be mean to me i am slow

outer raven
#

Slap Battles is basically a brand name

latent ore
#

you just bullied someone who is slow.... i cannot believe this

rapid sequoia
#

bro just ask the guy to change the name of the group if u dont want it like that @outer raven

outer raven
#

Bro that’s not possible

outer raven
#

😭

rapid sequoia
#

i miss roblox

#

u ever play miners haven

#

i used to be so good at that stuff

outer raven
#

I just get paid hourly

ornate prawn
#

Damn

latent ore
outer raven
shell otter
ornate prawn
#

Resume looks fine I think

#

Certainly better than what I had

latent ore
rapid sequoia
#

Now what if they google Tencell Studios - Roblox and they see it isnt a real company

outer raven
rapid sequoia
#

Nowthis dude fails the bgc

outer raven
#

Or his accountant idk

latent ore
outer raven
#

But under his name

outer raven
latent ore
#

yeah, this is so cooked 😭

outer raven
#

šŸ’€

ornate prawn
rapid sequoia
#

All the trolls gotta go

ornate prawn
#

I mean yea the roblox thing is a little scuffed

#

I would prolly put the name of the game

#

It's def worth to remain on resume tho

outer raven
ornate prawn
#

Slap Battles - Roblox

#

Smth like that

rapid sequoia
#

Stop

shell otter
#

@outer raven to be genuine, you should put Tencell Studios, Slap Battles Studios, Slap Battles - Roblox, Private Game Developer - Roblox, etc.

rapid sequoia
#

The first two arent real companies

ornate prawn
#

Yea those are good suggestions

rapid sequoia
#

Someone ban that guy

shell otter
#

I’d put ā€œPrivate Game Developer - Robloxā€

outer raven
#

Yes there is no ā€œStudioā€

ornate prawn
#

Ban tovar?

#

Yea this is fine

rapid sequoia
#

To be Frank

ornate prawn
#

It doesn't matter lowkey

rapid sequoia
#

Tobi Frank

ornate prawn
#

Lol yall put so much effort in

#

It doesn't matter

rapid sequoia
#

Software Engineer
Roblox

This is what Id do

ornate prawn
#

Just have the experience on tbere

outer raven
#

Is it fine to leave ā€œSoftware Engineerā€? I don’t see what’s so different than my current internship I just code

ornate prawn
#

It's all good

rapid sequoia
#

Maybe he should Write "I write Code for Slap Battles" for the position name

#

instead of Software Engineer

outer raven
#

roblox game development is as much SWE as normal game development is imo

latent ore
#

not correct AT ALL

#

just cause both code doesnt mean both are the same

outer raven
#

I’m saying like technically speaking

#

ofc working in a big company is gonna be different

shell otter
#

@outer raven I think saying Swe is fine since the definition of the role is broad, it’s more of the implication that you are a Roblox SWE that’s a bit disingenuous

outer raven
#

yeah, but it should be fine if I clarify that I am not employed directly by roblox?

shell otter
#

Like I’m ngl, if you have an interview where they ask questions

#

They will assume you work at Roblox and ask about that

outer raven
#

ok

shell otter
#

^^^

outer raven
#

imo
Software Engineer
Slap Battles - Roblox

or sth similar would be fine

#

anyone can use the term SWE?

outer raven
#

ok if my employer says I’m a software engineer is that valid šŸ’€

#

no my employer is not Roblox

#

I own and deploy features

#

Like I’m responsible for them

rapid sequoia
#

Johnny is getting gapped and trying to decrease it

#

Interesting work

outer raven
#

how is own misleading

rapid sequoia
#

I commend your efforts

outer raven
#

bruh

rapid sequoia
#

Look man im not the one here trying to make another dudes resume worse šŸ˜‚

outer raven
#

The only lie is putting down Roblox

rapid sequoia
#

just dont have JUST roblox and ur fine

outer raven
#

which I’ll change

rapid sequoia
#

bro are u stupid people have been grilling this dude for 100+ messages

#

to change roblox

#

why are u still attacking him on the same thing

outer raven
#

Yes I know I am, everyone lies to some extent hence why I came here asking for feedback

rapid sequoia
#

as long as he puts the game studio name then it's fine

outer raven
#

ok

outer raven
rapid sequoia
#

also does the 3rd bullet point matter (maybe if u apply to roblox it would) @outer raven

#

but i dont see any other company caring

outer raven
rapid sequoia
#

why did u go to the conference

outer raven
#

roblox hosts it and invites top creators

rapid sequoia
#

was it for the game?

vocal mulch
outer raven
#

it’s in September, so I haven’t gone yet

rapid sequoia
#

id add a little more to it

#

on why u were invited

outer raven
# rapid sequoia was it for the game?

It’s for networking and sharing new info about the roblox platform, they have a game jam, and they talk about upcoming technical changes and improvements to their engine etc

outer raven
#

thanks

quiet dock
modern niche
