dog youre going to zon

#

its fine

#

for a soph this is crazy

#

youre soph thats probably it

#

whawst your gpa

#

im assuming thats on your acc reusme

#

why

#

its great

#

yh it doesnt matter, but 3.8 is good enough for it to

#

just put it

#

its gonna be on the same line as your major

#

its not like its taking up space

#

with zon you probably gonna get hits at meta and g next year

#

with high gpa quants as well

#

atleast OAs

#

idt you got stuff to worry about just network on linkedin

#

around may end

#

june

#

connect with a lot of recruiters

#

i mean linkedin but email is more person

#

if oyu email it works better during non peak szn

#

so before hiring starts

#

nonno when you get your zon bullet points itll go by itself

#

probably that robotics stuff

#

from hs im assuming

#

try to get refs

#

youre at t4

#

it should be easy

#

reach out to seniors and shit

#

some companies can

#

and if they cant

#

they can talk to their manager

#

Can I get your resume template?

true horizon
#

wait what semester are you applying for at this point

#

yeah only during the summer tho while theyre actively working there, after they leave its tough

#

with refs?

#

if ur at T4 there should be designated recruiters for those companies

#

like i realized after coordinating that everyone at a college gets the same recruiter

#

and one recruiter even told me that she doesnt look at the pile of non-target schools until she gets through her target schools

#

yeah ur in a bunch of extracurrics right

#

also make friends with your teaching assistants

#

honestly met the most upperclass ppl by glazing em up at office hours

#

yeah this for sure

#

yeah tbh id prob cut down on the project section

#

bc you have FIVE prev internships lol

#

projects is more for ppl with nada who need to fill up white space

#

idk ymmv

#

i also cant tell what they are since theyre redacted so if you rly like them then keep it

#

it just sounds more impressive to put more named organizations

#

i see also is the robotics extracurric the same as the award

#

you could condense that, put the teaching in the header

#

but ur extracurrics have like AWS in them

#

ig not next.js typescript

#

oh wait also is robotics high school for you

#

yeah in that case then id try to replace them with college extracurrics

#

yeah the award should definitely stay
