Going into junior year, no interviews at all. Need help.

[light latch]

way too much white space

[honest violet]

we act like changing 1 word will change anything it really won’t if u have good names u get interviews

If u don’t get referrals

[lethal musk]

You have a decent resume. I just think your last two projects could be better or elaborated more tbh. Other than that, it's just luck whether or not you get an interview.

Perhaps even do a RAG project

[honest violet]

Get referrals gang trust

[lethal musk]

networking is the way to go

[plain shale]

your resumé isn’t enough to get you an interview unless you can beat the ats

referrals are the best bet to land an interview at a company you want to work at. the number of applicants to job opening is overwhelming cuz of lots of people applying w/ ai even though they don’t what they’re applying for.

[honest violet]

Good comms

[wraith shadow]

What tips would u give to pass the ats or do you mean I need to upgrade my projects overall?

[steel shoal]

referral

[wraith shadow]

Is that literally the only way. Like does everyone get a referral?

[steel shoal]

idk about us job market im canadian but yeah w/o a name company it's hard

unless you can stand out other ways but most people dont

[plain shale]

you can remove extracurriculars and put relevant coursework with education. don’t put relevant coursework as its own section.

[plain shale]

your projects are good. just take out data structures and a algorithms for the 3d ray tracing project. for technical skills sort them by languages, frameworks/libraries, tools, and concepts.

you should be fine but despite the atrocious # of applicants applying for a position especially big tech it’s better to get a referral.

there’s lots people who mass apply with ai and don’t know half the companies they’re applying to and expect to land an interview cuz it’s ez. so it’s hard to find the signal within the noise.
