@echo fog pinging so yk

#

@tardy mauve if ur interested too

tardy mauve
#

Interested in roasting? Lol

#

Node.js and react are frameworks not lang

#

Wait you duplicated them

#

They're both in lang and framework

bold thicket
#

yeah oops i lowk messed up a bit while anonymizing my resume

#

erm forget abt that

#

i used to have frameworks and libraries on the same line, decided to split them

tardy mauve
#

Posgres and MySQL are databases

#

You put them in library

#

Dev tools, no need for GitHub or gitlab

#

Just git is enough

#

Just noticed you are also doing two things at once

bold thicket
#

lowk i think im gonna stop the ai lab contract work its kinda useless

tardy mauve
#

Hmm

#

Your formatting is good tho

#

I like it

bold thicket
#

okay yay thank u

tardy mauve
#

Maybe add gpa if it's good

#

Greater than 3.0

#

Nvm lol

bold thicket
#

yeah my gpa is dog shit

tardy mauve
#

Mine is also ~3.2

#

In us standards

bold thicket
#

the only explanation is moving cross country was not as easy as i thought and my shitty first few friends played victim olympics which fucked up my mental health a LOT bc i was too empathetic

#

i eventually cut them out and my gpa improved but i graduated a year early (3 instead of 4) so if i was still in school rn my gpa would’ve been much better

tardy mauve
#

I see

#

In stealth startup 3rd point

#

Did you just said: integrating frontend, backend, databases, api

#

Everything?

#

Hmm

bold thicket
#

okay it’s like i’ve barely started any work on it but the co founders r okay w me putting it on my resume

#

and i’m helping make the full mvp

tardy mauve
#

It might be true but in point of recruiter it be exaggerated

bold thicket
#

so eventually 3-6 months down the line i’ll have worked on implementing all of the third point

bold thicket
#

the second point is fully truthful i could expand upon it a bit more maybe

tardy mauve
#

Try to write only the work you've done since you don't wanna get blasted later on

bold thicket
#

yeah fair

tardy mauve
#

Or if you can larp know stuff then that's fine too

bold thicket
#

i cld larp some react stuff cuz i’ve done some in the past

#

but like… that was a year ago lol

tardy mauve
#

I once wrote FAST API in skills

#

And got blasted in interview

bold thicket
#

😭

#

tardy mauve
#

bold thicket

tardy mauve
#

Well I'm in India

bold thicket
#

ohh gotcha

tardy mauve
#

Not US

bold thicket
#

nice

tardy mauve
#

Your last point in startup,
Maybe you could rephrase it

#

Starting with "Led to" sounds awkward

#

Since you taught students

#

Mentored or smth

#

Is better

bold thicket
#

yeah, i needed a way to communicate that the ai tool i helped make actually led to good outcomes lol

tardy mauve
#

Use claude it's better

bold thicket
#

yeah lol the ai tool was a gpt wrapper

#

like there’s a reason that startup no longer exists 💀

tardy mauve
#

Which one?!

#

In ur resume?

bold thicket
#

Startup, summer 2024

tardy mauve
#

Try this thing

#

Maybe you can get tips

bold thicket
#

yes imma use this after getting human review from any1 willing to give

tardy mauve
#

There was also a company that came to my college

#

For LLM Trainer

bold thicket
#

interesting

tardy mauve
#

They lowkey had 1 star on the ambition box lmao

bold thicket
#

💀

tardy mauve
#

It was in winter

#

So holidays were going on

#

They asked if someone wanted to join them they should go for onsite interview in college itself

#

Now who tf will go college from home lol

bold thicket
#

yeah lol

#

weird

#

was it a multinational or a local company

tardy mauve
#

Local shit comp

bold thicket
#

😭😭

tardy mauve
#

My internship was already going on so idrc about it

#

But broke ppl gone

#

Some people joined but

#

Only 2 emerged victorious

bold thicket
#

😭

tardy mauve
#

Most people resigned

bold thicket
#

they went through the wringer huh

tardy mauve
#

Lol

#

@bold thicket can you send your latex code?

bold thicket
#

oh i used a resume builder website

tardy mauve
#

It looks pretty clean i wanna try

tardy mauve
bold thicket
#

i found latex too fiddly when i tried to use jake’s resume template

tardy mauve
bold thicket
tardy mauve
#

Free?

bold thicket
#

yes

tardy mauve
#

Lemme try

bold thicket
#

but it’s got a waitlist

#

so it most likely won’t let u make a resume

tardy mauve
#

Interesting

#

F

bold thicket
#

yeah sorry dawg

#

maybe me next project cld be making a clone of the resume builder

#

cuz it seems the guy who made it isn’t rly maintaining it anymore

#

like he’s not active

bold thicket
#

oh yeah ik, the dates on my actual are month year, i omitted here for anonymity

#

will do 🫡

#

some are embellished others are actually real

#

but gotcha

#

the thing is idk ts/js that well but i will be using both extensively while mvp'ing w the stealh startup

#

wait im confused what r u talking abt?

#

oh yeah, im gonna stop that lol

#

at the very least im not gonna list it on my resume

#

yeah... i gotta make a few good contribs to the open source proj then ill update the bullets for it

#

yes i need to rephrase that

#

my intent was to communicate that using that tool, we were able to mentor 20+ kids

#

meant to say doubled backend functionality by rather than just being a gpt wrapper, we set up a rag pipeline and custom prompting system, but i didnt rly help w/ the rag stuff, only a bit with custom prompting which was literally just adding a new text box, taking input, and passing that to the model behind the scenes. rly simple and honestly doesnt sound that impressive but it did lead to a few test users happy with the output of the tool

#

mm okay

#

yeah 😭

#

yeah i agree

#

i have been lowk, esp this cycle. im rly hoping smth pulls through w ibm

#

yeah i think im gonna go hard on making good contribs to the open source proj i listed

#

do u think the research proj im doing w a local t20 prof is a good pursuit?

#

i didnt list it on my resume but i told u abt it last night

#

hm i can explain a bit more abt the research proj stuff in dms bc saying too much publicly cld highk doxx me but thank u for ur feedback!
