tbh youre on the right track, think you just missed an opportunity for an internship/co-op but you're not cooked

#

research and some pretty good projects, you can aim for mid-sized companies in tech, maybe large companies that arent purely software(?)

#

if your research exp has been at diff labs or projects, maybe split them up? if its just one continuous position ignore that

#

outside of that all you can really do is prob more research and be on top of the apps that are coming out

#

youre fine man, for a rising soph youre still well ahead of the curve

#

T20 school, larping an earlier grad date, you already know the playbook

#

double down on research, get a project with user metrics, and start networking

#

youll find something pretty easily

orchid glen
#

Thank you for the advice, bro ❤️

#

Do you think I should completely remove the last project or just keep it as filler?

tawdry scaffold
#

its not very good, but space wise your resume would look so much worse without it

#

if its any consolation, no ones gonna get to reading that when youre getting screened by real humans

orchid glen
#

I’m going to work on a new project during the rest of summer to hopefully axe the last project without ruining spacing.

#

And Leetcode 😡

#

As always.

tawdry scaffold
#

neetcode 150 of doom and despair 🙏

orchid glen
#

Yep.

#

Since you go to UMD, try to get into Hack4Impact or App Dev. They’ve helped me a ton and I likely wouldn’t be where I am without them

oi t20 cs

#

me and you are making it out

prime osprey
#

It’s rizzing me gng

orchid glen
#

Like literally change the project or fix bullets?

#

I feel like I need to change bullets in like every thing on that page, I don’t know how to make them.

#

I’m ass at coming up with project ideas. That was like the only decent thing I could come up with for full-stack adjacent stuff. Like what would be a better replacement?

#

If I was doing stuff I actually like, I would be doing hella ML or finance adjacent stuff.

#

But also I need a j*b, soo…

#

True. I am going to work on a new project over rest of summer, so that’ll ideally be tacked onto the top of my projects list and I’ll axe the very last filler “project”.

#

I’ll keep the leetcode interviewer when I make a new project because that’s significantly better than keeping that last project.

#

Thank you, Yeema.

#

One day I will have a resume thread as long as yours.

You’re ahead of the curve for most sophs, this server is full of the top 5% with some people working to get there

#

Yeah, my old team was full of UMD co ops and full timers

zon = ngmi is a braindead statement

bolding looks kinda weird in bottom project bullets when ur bolding like one item per 4 lines

#

Poppy you should be good for c1

#

my advice for you is to maybe add some club experience and mention something you may have collaborated with other people on

#

espeically since you don't have much experience

#

I am aiming for c1 like you and this is something a c1 recuriter mentioned to me

#

she said c1 really does look at leadership and collaboration

orchid glen
#

Thank you, bro 🙏

#

More than 10% of this summer’s teip class is from there

orchid glen
#

Spacing between individual bullet points or spacing between every line in the document?

fickle drum
orchid glen
#

Yep, working on replacing it.

#

Are dates on projects necessary?

fickle drum
#

no i dont have them

half matrix
orchid glen
#

Ok, thank you, Yeema. Let’s pray Latex doesn’t tweak out on me.

#

I’ll also remove my project dates. Consensus is obvious here.

#

So less space above the title “Projects” and the title “Technical Skills”?

orchid glen
#

Maybe too much spacing. Can’t tell.

versed stratus
#

lot of whitespace

#

lowk just increase font size 😂

orchid glen
#

I just fixed spacing with spacing.

merry helm
#

fuck dude

#

this is tough

#

uhhh

#
  • hyperlink your projects or recruiter cant tell if its bluff
#
  • rover project was a hackathon apparently? not sure but maybe have dates for your projects and clarify using the google xyz format
#
  • remove some of the useless bulletpoints like "allows users to..." theyll ask for more clarity during the interview, its a waste of whitespace ; points 1 and 3 on your stock project needs to be redefined
#

  • redefine what you're trying to tell the recruiter about your projects, alot of your resume bullet points seem to be missing something, can't point it out now but maybe later

  • missing leadership initative

  • remove bolding since its decently spaced out, maybe a lil too much

#

Good resume tho considering you've been farming your gpa more than actual work exp. so good job ig, not much u can do more than the suggestions i provided
