try using jake’s resume template
and bold keywords and metrics in your bullet points
fair escarp
I am (it’s a derivative of Jake’s but same)
fair escarp
and bold keywords and metrics in your bullet points
I was told it’s cleaner and more readable without bolding tho
maybe I bold just 3-5 metrics total

I was told it’s cleaner and more readable without bolding tho
i mean if human recruiters and hiring managers are reading it. you content might stand out.
you have a lot of good metrics in your projects and experience. make sure you bold them
snow root
they are good

Ok then tell me the criteria for passing and failing

Idk how ur not getting first rounds at least icl

Ok then tell me the criteria for passing and failing
What do you mean lol theres some threshold u have to be above
prolly some knockouts asw
u mightve tripped one of those
fair escarp
That’s dumb as hell
Idk what the strat was but when I did I was trying to be consistent in a couple qualities
So my answers weren’t all over the place
sleek path
That’s dumb as hell
? why
fair escarp
Maybe that caused it to score lower in other areas?
fair escarp
The oa itself is dumb

How do u even pass it bruh

Need to lock in

<@384028650439311361> but so do u think I should change anything w my resume
i think the bullet points could be more descriptive
ifl a lot of them are quite short and don't tell u that much
i'd add some more metrics asw
i think ur projects are good
i might put the 2nd or 3rd one first tho bc they have real users, seems more impressive
wait also how come u dont have gpa on res
rose quiver
no the behavioral oa is very failable
but all u have to do is pick 2-3 LPs and stick with them
customer obsession needs to be 1
fair escarp
damn i didnt know the method ig
fair escarp
wait also how come u dont have gpa on res
...its bad 💀
sleek path
i don't see much of a change tbh, i think u could elaborate on some of these points
ex for the log analysis tool u can talk ab jenkins in a separate bullet and what u acc did with it
or like the first nokia bullet-it's super vague
what is a "production ready fix"
fair escarp
the jenkins part was just the "frontend" for the tool
fair escarp
what is a "production ready fix"
idk, fixes that i pushed to production 💀
how can i be more detailed idk
fair escarp
not much ngl
sleek path
like, most of the codebase is there so the stuff i did was pretty low impact
this is fine but u should at least try to show what u were doing
"production ready fix" is like some shi i would say after adding a two line comment in a repo i know nothing about
fair escarp
"production ready fix" is like some shi i would say after adding a two line comm...
ok what i literally did was for example, there were errors showing up in a simulation environment because a class variable had a bad default value. In the sim environment that value was never set, so it showed an error that didn't really mean anything. so it was literally a one line change 💀
like what would u say for that
sleek path
💀 lemme think
fair escarp
it was stuff like that
like changing some log from "info" level to "debug" level
random shit i did to get used to the codebase
the thing i spent the most time on was the 2nd bullet actually
sleek path
there u could elaborate on what the log analysis tool acc does
sleek path
like what would u say for that
u could say smth like "Optimized the developer workflow for a complex simulation environment by troubleshooting and fixing a persistent core class bug, minimizing noise in system diagnostics"
sleek path
i'd prolly do smth like that yea
sleek path
i mean u could tone it down a bit
but to me "contributed improvements and fixes" just sounds rlly lame
sleek path
u could say smth like "Optimized the developer workflow for a complex simulation...
u could do smth like "Resolved a recurring error in the simulation environment by fixing misconfigured class variables, helping reduce unnecessary log noise." if u want to tone it down
