Would love some advice (Revised Resume)

glad wyvern
#

i dont think your resume is bad

#

and u got a decent amount of interviews so clearly its working

#

spring apps are kinda fake

west cloud
#

My expectations might just be extremely skewed

glad wyvern
#

zon oa is rng

#

rest of those companies are very selective

#

like they will care abt ur school and whatnot

@alpine drift Would love to get your take with your tempalte

main karma
glad wyvern
#

Both

#

I mean that’s just how it is for a lot of places

#

How else can you filter thousands of people

main karma
#

fair

#

quants aren’t that selective if you pass their oa like citadel

west cloud
#

so lowkey hard to get anything now

alpine drift
#

can’t expect anything

Your GPA is 4.00/4.00?

#

I thought they'd kiss your feet with such merits

#

um

#

comparing to other people is kinda sus cause most arent really doing anything

#

like is witch what i think it is

#

cause if u want to be competitive u need a good name

#

like not much else u can do

#

maxing wise

west cloud
#

one of those

#

weirdly enough I heard of it for the first time here

west cloud
glad wyvern
#

i heard about them

#

its cause they arbitrage labor

#

so may be a bad look but work is work

#

and they are recognizable

#

for good or bad idk

west cloud
#

Yeah true

glad wyvern
#

compared to people in big tech

west cloud
glad wyvern
#

i would say if u dont have a reputable name u are behind

west cloud
#

Cuz it's very Healthcare focused

glad wyvern
#

yeah its fine

#

better than fake at least

west cloud
glad wyvern
#

hm

#

depends on the recruiter i guess

#

if they can recognize it thats prob good enough

#

but if ur concern is being competitive for faang

#

just try to get referral

west cloud
#

Unless the referrer can vouch for u

#

I had a relative refer me to IBM and she works on the Watson team and got nothing

glad wyvern
#

Yeah but not much else you can do

#

Besides her better experience

#

kind of hard to tell what ur research is at a glance

#

like if ur a recruiter

#

its just a bunch of technical jargon

#

i try to make first bullet not very technical so people can get a gist of what i did even if theyre not like cs majors

#

also theres like no info on the context of this model, like what data its being used for, why youre even optimizing it, etc.

#

second experience has better bullets but some of the numbers sound forced

#

like

#

changing# of pages is not that hard with RAG

#

700 doesnt mean anything

#

maybe it looks big to a recruiter but its like not that important

#

also the first bullet for WITCH is too wordy, maybe split it up into 2

#

btw if ur a us citizen id put it on your resume bc people seeing WITCH might automatically assume ur indian international

#

i like bullets for 3rd one, pretty much perfect, only issue is you never mention what you used to build (tools/technologies)

#

projects all look pretty good

#

ok yeah everything else looks good

#

i think the main thing is just editing experience bullet points

west cloud
#

I kinda had to stuff the points cuz I am trying to squeeze it into a page

#

Is it fine if i dm u a revised version to review?
