She is just bragging/advertising for her stupid website/course to get rich.

[@davebrown1975]

There's no doubt that if you're new to the industry, then you wouldn't have a lot to list under professional experience. However, you would only be applying for positions at specifically junior / entry level. So in that case no potential employer would expect to see a lengthy professional experience. What we would be looking at is your education, both formal education and hopefully signs you are learning skills on your own. We'd want to see evidence of a portfolio, maybe a github account so we can actually view your code. If you don't have any of those then it would be hard to take you seriously as a driven and passionate developer.

I always wonder why those HRs think "the performance is improved by 30%" is believable? I can randomly make up a fake number. I just don't know.

[@wowitscrazyinthere5745]

Clearly this video is not for everyone as it is more targeted towards people with x amount of experience. I would like to see a resume that doesn’t include professional experience. If I am being honest, when people apply to jobs at big companies, they flat out copy the keywords, even though they don’t have those skills. Then they freeze during the interview. Not recommended.

[@gracemugoiri8330]

True. She should at least help with people with less experience or entry level positions.

[@wowitscrazyinthere5745]

@gracemugoiri8330 yup. That's not her experience tho. She was already in the zone. Even if she made a video that says no experience, like the resumes, it would be a lie.

[@fackyoutube8452]

You need those buzzwords or the AI system filters you out. You think humans view every single resume? People can send the same company two resumes and one gets in while the other doesn’t just because they got filtered out by the initial system

[@vipinchandra8955]

@@gracemugoiri8330 see if u have good experience in the field..building resume hardly matters..as most company prefer experienced person..

[@PoojaDutt]

Good point! To be honest, I have an unpopular opinion there. Get experience at smaller companies first before jumping into big tech. It’s easier to approach, especially if you end up being fully remote

[@tastyham]

"Wanna know how to get hired as a junior? Just get 3 years of experience in a startup and a big company right before!"

On your resume roast no one mentioned that you had mispelled "TECHINCAL" in the Technical skills section header. Very good advice!

[@PoojaDutt]

Thank you! Setting up a lot of 1:1’s tends to help (even if it’s just grabbing coffee with a stranger). It forces you to get used to many different styles of communication. Also explaining technical concepts to non-technical people can really help your communication skills!

Thank you for sharing! I just realize that the job market nowadays is getting more and more ridiculous. Can you believe that most "entry level" jobs on LinkedIn require 3+ yrs of experience and jobs seeking candidates with 5+ yrs experience only offers 80k/yr?... Seriously, are those employers here to hire people or to simply make wishes? Has any of them ever wondered where those experienced engineers come from while there is nobody hiring real entry level candidates?

[@PoojaDutt]

Agreed, it’s a very difficult market regardless of years of experience

[@mhb3262]

While a well-crafted resume can certainly help land interviews at top tech companies, it's ultimately their skills and work experience that truly set candidates apart. Just saying!

[@prishamaiti]

Pooja, this is incredible stuff! I'm a college student studying computer science, and watching your videos really helps me think about what I want to do in the industry during and after undergrad. I do have a question though. Even if you have every skill that a recruiting company is looking for, what kinds of things can you learn from doing internships at these MAANG companies or other big companies?

So we have to please the recruiters now too with fake numbers and percentages? That’s a bit much. Hiring process is broken and I wish startups come up with a way to fix this

[@PoojaDutt]

These numbers should never be fake - the difference is you'll have to actually take the time to calculate or monitor these numbers

[@creepy_paratha]

@@PoojaDutt Ah! I did not mean to write fake. But the fact is that it is easy to provide a justification for anything I write which makes this very unreliable, and yet the recruiters insist on this. I would rather talk about the complexities I solved in terms of the technical challenges than focus on a concise version of the overall impact in calculated numbers ( SWE brain speaking as opposed to a manager brain I suppose ). Sigh! ( these are just rants )

[@sw9276]

Wait, that hiring manager says there is a tool that they can use to see the companies and positions the candidate has applied. Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't this a serious violation of data privacy? If what he says is true, then he is doing a horrible job.

[@PoojaDutt]

It’s not a data privacy issue. He said they can view other applications within the company (not for other companies). This does make a difference between recognizing if a candidate is applying for anything and everything, versus what they’re qualified for/interested in

[@amj.composer]

This is some good info, thanks! Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like it's a better idea to learn and have "wide" experience as opposed to "deep" experience. Like I'm assuming having like one insanely deep PyTorch project is cool but I'm assuming you're not as employable as someone who has rathee superficial projects/experiences in like 6-7 language/frameworks? Again, tell me your opinion as I'm not sure.

[@birdcamhighlights5414]

Talk to legal/HR at the internship before you leave about what parts of your project you're allowed to disclose on your resume and how much detail you're allowed to go into on your resume. A lot of times you can talk more about what you've done than you think without violating an NDA.

[@liquidsnake6879]

Don't wanna be a party pooper and i appareciate the intent behind the video, but as a seasoned developer who did countless interviews and is well acquainted with the recruitment process at a relatively large company, i can assure you the reason you got the job is not because of your resume but because there a was a quota to fill and you fit the bill and so automatically leapfrog people with better resumes and more experience, sad but true. That's how it works nowadays especially in FAANG companies. And i don't mean this as a knock on you in any way, i'm sure you're very capable on your own right and the quota isn't enough to hire someone who's not good at all, presentation, resume and experience does matter, but the reason you can leapfrog other people competing for the same job is not because of your resume, i wish it was, but it's not.
