So nothing for me to do beyond that?
Anything else I can do outside of resume polishing to up my chances?
Not even getting OAs
I feel like im being filtered out cuz of my resume
If I cold email recruiters, do I have much better chances?
Am I just getting filtered for some reason, but getting a recruiter’s eyes on my resume will get me an interview?
your bullet points are dumb imo
leave tech stack next to ur experience or something
but 6 bullet points for aws with no quantifiable impact isn't i guess so much of a good sign
def try to see if theres any way you can implement some sort of metric without it sounding like bluff - think back to what exactly you worked on
- nitpicky but apparently having a dot next to your month auto rej's sometimes, not ats friendly. Personally chopped my year ('24-'25) and left the full month
- Hyperlink your work or github repo
- LTM benchmarking 2nd bullet point and 3rd can be combined, say that you trained them resulting in y metric
Good resume just needs a few bulletpoint edits since a lot of your work isn't really larped out ig
Got it ty
hi, just wanted to bump this to ask about space management
gimme a moment, i'll upload my questions
Have a few questions
- Went to the CodePath career fair and was told by recruiters that it's a good idea to have both a coursework section and a concepts section, but I'm not sure how I can fit that here.
- Some of my options seem to be adding the hackathon project to the Activities section to cut down on a project and add the coursework
- Another option might just be to do smthn else like getting rid of projects entirely and adding a portfolio website link, but I've heard recruiters don't even check it out. I think this might be okay because they might not look at the project section anyway and the hiring manager could just click on my portfolio, but I'm not sure how good of an idea this is.
- I'm also open to other ideas in terms of how to manage the space here.
-
I've heard from CodePath recruiters that they search up CodePath on the resume, so I'm wondering if it's a good idea to add an activities section for that.
-
I'm not sure if I should add U.S. Citizen and Github link on the resume. Is this actually useful?
-
Is my skills section actually an improvement here? Should I get rid of some stuff from technical skills section like the Tools line and add in the REST API, gRPC, and GraphQL to concepts instead?
NGMI New Grad?
sent out 150 apps using this resume and got 0 callbacks
how have you found 150 ng apps
theres like 20 good companies out
did u get AWS RO? also how do you like NYU
put organizations in the education section
not everyone is as gmi as u gang
some of us just need employment
your bullets in the non-aws internship are kind of weak
ngl
some of these prob arent 2026 ng
ive seen quite a few for recent (2025) ng
its still pretty early honestly, apps are just being posted for 2026 and not alot of interviews are going out yet
Would yg say that having extracurriculars that end after intern dates might be a problem on applications
I see in some of mine even though I put my work experience which ended first later on when I login the job thing reformats it so that the latest ending extracurricular is on top
not sure
