Hey what is that font?? Looks amazing

[unkempt skiff]

It’s lato, ranging from size 10.5 to 11.5 throughout

not my format though, all credits to @polar valley

[unkempt skiff]

how’d u know sherlock 💀💀

[orchid ember]

do you have 🔗 to the template?

[unkempt skiff]

sure, if u give me an hour I can send it. I just copied it in Google docs though, not overleaf if ur looking for that

[orchid ember]

Also don't have much to say on your resume's content tbh I think it's fire

but, personally I wouldnt mix and match bold and underlines, but maybe thats just me

[orchid ember]

One or the other's fine

Thx!!

[unkempt skiff]

gotcha, thanks! I was thinking it looks kinda busy. I might just underline statistics ig

[orchid ember]

to me, underlines imply links in a resume

but yeah you could try that, i'd have to see to tell

[unkempt skiff]

oh wait yeah that’s true

maybe I’ll try out bold

but ye I don’t think ill mismatch

[orchid ember]

also bold this letter

[unkempt skiff]

thanks vro 🙏🙏

bloomberg and bank is so tough, do u do backend by any chance cuz if so one of ur managers is my uncle?

I can ask him to get u that RO

(he wont even refer me cuz family drama)

in the first bullet for the bank internship, can you mention the tech u worked with too? did u develop the backend or just the chatbot? if u worked on backend then mention the tech for that

and by any chance do you have the numbers (or can get the numbers) of the impact the project had?

like improved dev productivity by some % or reduced latency by some % and stuff

[crisp hollow]

he wont refer you, but he will take your friend

confusing

[honest narwhal]

ikr

[crisp hollow]

can he refer me

I'm ngmi

😦

[stable lark]

[unkempt skiff]

[unkempt skiff]

ohh yeah fair fair. i didn't really try too hard to anonymize my resume so u could prolly figure out who i am lol

[unkempt skiff]

hopefully ur uncle comes around -- why's he doing allat and not giving u a referral bruh

[stable lark]
