doomed

[devout wing]

How do you have nvidia as a place in the future?

@stray ginkgo we might to rework the whole resume because this is information overload

[wispy quiver]

stfu

[stray burrow]

nvdia ,virtu and no interview??

[worldly nova]

wtf 😭

[hidden gull]

How tf are you doomed if you have nvidia, lockheed, and research?

Worst comes to worst, the economy sucks and you don't get return, but that's it.

[stray ginkgo]

yes and that = unemployed

[stray ginkgo]

signed for fall

[devout wing]

If you have Nvidia

You're gucci

You have one now, and one for September

[worldly nova]

teach me how to get nvidea 🙏

[hidden gull]

I'm thinking one of a few things right now:

1. Your expectations are too high bc you think Nvidia is scheisse.
2. Your goal is to do pure software, so you'd rather pivot to a different direction.
3. You want to become CEO and couldn't get your company started.
4. You are delulu and don't realize how lucky you are.

[stray ginkgo]

[viscid sparrow]

yea they yield protected you

lol

[stray ginkgo]

no

[pallid obsidian]

bruh ur good tho the awards section might not be necessary

[thin rampart]

@stray ginkgo To begin my experience is not nearly as good as yours so I will comment on formatting and how ur representing info.

u could maybe bold key metrics, "Pod Mentor" experience can be more concisely fit under education as "clubs and activities" under your education section (that way you can add additiinal clubs in)
For example

University of Something, BS Comp Sci june 2022 - blah
Relevant Courswork: [classes]
Relevant Activities: [your teaching stuff]

Ur projects r cool, but if you can fit operating system kernal in two bullet points, might be worth expanding one of your experiences a bit (although this is a personal tradeoff)

I disagree with removing rewards, USACO and AIME helps ze' autoscreeners not throw away ur application for finance-oriented positions

[stray ginkgo]

yes

i got cit interview but the link had no dates to schedule it and i emailed them and they took 2 weeks to respond and the new link they sent still has no dates to schedule and it’s been a week since i emailed them again about that

that’s the only interview ☠️

yeah u don’t even really need to prep to qualify for it

my score on it is like what usamo qualifiers usually get but i sold the amc that year so i barely missed usamo

yeah im cooked

i have nvidia on my resume though

no projects yet but the name is there

that’s like the main reason i’m doing nvidia

if i got one more q right i would’ve made usamo

nothing

no i don’t think that’s how usamo works

ngl i have no idea

i’m like not good at math though i always just showed up and took the tests without knowing anything

[stray ginkgo]

yeah i think my main issue is quantity over quality

so i should have more bullets for my exp

but lowkey i haven’t done that much at any of my jobs

[thin rampart]

Wirte down what you did do and see if you can slap some backable numbers on it

otherwise, I think probably just make the resume more readable

and move teaching stuff to relevant activities anyway

if you have extra space u can always add skills/languages/etc

[lunar summit]

can't help but can I see your OS project? shit seems cool

[stray ginkgo]

ngl its not on github

its on a laptop i left at home lol i can send it in 2 weeks when i go back

[lunar summit]

naaah nw

thanks tho

if you do end up rmbring, I'd still be grateful

🙏

[thin rampart]

r u willing to review my resume too?

[thin rampart]

Thank you <3

I did all the fixes J suggested, except for the one that's still being discussed. Both of us are kind of lost as to how to address it

[stray ginkgo]

fixed it up a bit dyt this is good

[thin rampart]

I would bold key metrics… ur numbers look pretty solid but I completely missed half of them on my first skim

Other than that it looks pretty good to me ur resume now reads like

• NVIDIA
• VIRTU
• LOCKHEED
• research
• blacked out company

Instead of

• NVIDIA
• Virtual
• lockheed
• TA-ing AT YOUR SCHOOL
• blacked out company

Ur projects are dope btw

[urban cove]

orz

[thin rampart]

Damn

Haven’t seen that in a while

Orz

[stray ginkgo]

half of them are estimates/based on like one or two benchmarks lol

so i didn’t want to emphasize them too much

[slate shell]

trash resume, should just retire at this point 🤡

[junior oyster]

Same😩

[hidden gull]

might be late but employers might be reluctant seeing u have an incoming internship

[stray ginkgo]

i mean it’s for fall

but maybe they’d think i would take nvidia ro if i got it over them

its aight though it worked out

[slate shell]

bro u know ppl want things they cant have

feel like it would be stupid not to interview just cus u prolly have another offer

unless their company is shit and they think they're definitely worse than the company u have an offer for

[stray ginkgo]

lol ur good
