first bullet on NN project can be shortened to two lines pretty easily

pearl slate
#

^

hard wing
pearl slate
#

thats what i was gonna say

hard wing
#

idk how i never noticed that

pearl slate
#

i feel like you can get rid of a few of the extra words like "advanced" and "techniques"

#

same with 2nd, you could probably split that into two bullets

hard wing
pearl slate
#

yeah

#

and a little bit of a nitpick but personally i try to fit each line into either one full line, or two full lines

#

just so there isnt half a line of straight whitespace

strong elk
#

maybe add a 4th point or something

hard wing
strong elk
#

it looks so wordy I aint even read it so I cant imagine recruiter will

#

2 lines is good

hard wing
loud sphinx
#

agreed^

pearl slate
#

id just try to focus each bullet point for each specific contribution, should help with the length

strong elk
#

ya thats an important one

pearl slate
#

^

loud sphinx
#

separate C and C++ in skills? i heard people saying their pretty different so putting them combined shows lack of knowledge

hard wing
#

ok interesting

#

i can get the rationale behind this

#

I will more seirously consider it

#

no

#

i dont get anything because of my school

#

i prob would need google minimum to get any recruiter attention

tardy dagger
#

ts kinda tuff

chilly pilot
#

be loud and proud bout that amazon slave role

#

welcome to the club

hard wing
#

ngl i didnt even know u had to apply

#

im info gapped

chilly pilot
#

rip, i got it off networking

#

my school also ass

#

it was sitting on a redidt thread too for a bit

tardy dagger
#

zero2sudo

pearl slate
#

zero2sudo?

#

bro leaks everything

tardy dagger
#

he a real one

pearl slate
#

i understand what he be tryna do but like

tardy dagger
#

hes trying to remove the gatekeeping aspect

#

i get it

chilly pilot
#

i respect it ngl

#

as someone not in a t20

pearl slate
#

he just leaked that recruiters are telling event goers to put specific keywords on their resume to show that they went to the event

#

now everyones just gonna larp

loud sphinx
#

the amazon bs yea

chilly pilot
#

its common now ig

tardy dagger
#

amazon?

pearl slate
#

yeah

chilly pilot
#

this zero2sudo guy famous, im living under a rock ig

pearl slate
#

no some amazon event

#

if you went to it you got a recruiter email telling you to put specific keywords on your resume so your recruiter could find you

#

then he leaked the recruiter email

hard wing
#

what were the keywrods

#

"banana"

pearl slate
#

forgot but had sumn to do with the event

hard wing
#

opinions? @here

pearl slate
#

same

#

first c1 bullet should be 2 lines max

hard wing
#

im cooked i dunno how to shortern without cutting out what i believe to be good content

#

im cooked

#

i worked on a lot

#

is the issue

pearl slate
hard wing
#

im trynna show how much i did yfm give off a "wow he did so much what a productive little intern" vibe

#

ight ight true

#

ig it is a little vague

pearl slate
hard wing
#

hmm

#

but its like

#

idt i can do that without going to 3 bullets min

#

maybe ill just

#

yea

#

pick out the best few

#

forget ab the rest

pearl slate
#

yeah whatever makes for a compelling bullet point

loud sphinx
#

yo wtf im reading this shit and just wells fargo reject

#

LOL

#

c1 orz

hard wing
#

@here

#

also do yall think i should highlight team work at all

#

fuh bro i have sm more i think is good to add but i dont have space

#

how tf do fulltimers do this for their 2 years+ roles

#

its good??

#

the second bullet

#

ok fye

#

thx

#

man these resume reviews r so useful

#

that is on purpose

#

My first bullets r usually an easier to digest high level description

pearl slate
hard wing
#

then the rest is just trying to signal max

pearl slate
#

should give you more space

#

experience matters more after all so

#

if you have something to add that’s worthwhile then add it

hard wing
#

idk why

#

just feels not concise

pearl slate
hard wing
#

like i dont need more space i just need to fit more into 6 lines 😭

#

once i start getting zon bullets im prob nuking one of the projects

pearl slate
#

^

hard wing
#

tbh theres only one more actually signal one it was some leadership stuff during some critical moments

#

at least i thought it was good leadership

#

ok fs

#

id kill myself

#

im ng;

#

if i get abad proj for zon

#

im gonna GRIND so mf hard

#

to get stretch goals

#

or a second project

#

i would literally finish my project in a few weeks

#

grind my life out

#

if i got a dashboard

#

no

#

ATS

#

theoretically backend + dist systems + scalable software heavy org

#

yea ig

#

ig for intern this is true

#

to an extent

pearl slate
#

real

#

looks better

hard wing
#

if i up my font size by even 1 it overflows by like half a page

#

completely impossible for my resume atm. I think it would be a huge net loss to try to make that work

pearl slate
#

large fonts always so clean

hard wing
#

i personally find this density aesthetically pleasing

#

feels like a candidate with some meat

#

yfm

#

i never liked the hyper optimized for length bigger font resumes

#

but its all eprsonal opinion at that point

#

if it has high enough signal

#

i think so

#

i feel like every title is interesting enough to wanna keep reading at least a little bit, and each first bullet is interesting enough to continue a little longer

#

i believe so at least

#

yea ive seen those

#

i like them i think theyre great

#

but i prefer my style

#

just comes down to personal opinion i think

pearl slate
#

think your company names have enough pull to where it shouldn’t matter too much either way

#

yeah honestly

#

if i had to go through 100 resumes a day i wouldn’t even bother reading bullet points

#

i’d just skim

loud sphinx
hard wing
#

You on that new team?

#

I forget the name

loud sphinx
#

I’m on IFX/AIF

hard wing
#

Ahbok nvm then

#

Theres like one single intern team on that new team i was talking about

#

Capital ones software products division

loud sphinx
#

Oh hm

hard wing
#

The shi that theyre pushing to try to become seen as proper “tech”

loud sphinx
#

Ohh yeah

#

Fairbanks speech

weary copper
#

ur so orz

hard wing
#

Teeny tiny nitpick but a handful of bullets end with a period while most end with nothing

hard wing
#

Valid nitpick

swift locust
fringe salmon
#

lol ain’t no way u also used opensearch and lexical search😂

#

For consistency u should be bolding keywords for other stuff too not just c1

#

Also u should add more in languages

hard wing
hard wing
#

So too many bolds will cause overflow

hard wing
#

R u c1 too rn

fringe salmon
fringe salmon
hard wing
#

Bro oh its dan

#

U changed ur name

#

I didnt recognize 😭😭😭

fringe salmon
#

😭

hard wing
#

Did u use opensearch too

#

What was ur proj

fringe salmon
#

Yea

hard wing
#

Wait so lowk like was our project dead just the same as an ML interns proj 😭😭😭

strong elk
fringe salmon
swift locust
#

😞 so tragic

rich bear
#

should u spell out linkedin and github links

#

just wondering

hard wing
rich bear
#

why didn't u hyperlink ur project name

hard wing
rich bear
#

like why did u write github on the side

hard wing
#

But

#

Formatting looks weird imo loke that

#

Just looks like u underlined proj name

#

Looks weird

#

And if u dont then it doesnt look like u linked it

rich bear
#

is it fine to say Link instead of github

#

or they specifically want to see your github links

#

because couple of my projects are research papers

dusty pasture
#

sm of his linkedin posts are blatantly wrong

rich bear
#

nah
