and void f(const std::vector<std::string> arg);
do very different things, I'd say that you should at least sell yourself as paying attention to detail.You could say that this is a poor design of C++, but pick your language, there's usually something like this somewhere. At least in any of the commonly used languages. (Although, C++ is particularly bad about it.)
You can go pretty far down this rabbit hole and be a grammar Nazi. All it shows is that you’re a grammar Nazi.
Also, a public service announcement: if you were leading a project in the past, its "led", not "lead" :)
I always wish there were verb form of "tech lead." You can say "led X" or "served as tech lead for X" but neither is quite ideal.
They can lurk.
I haven't applied to a job in a while, but as a hiring manager, I usually just ask for their GitHub and LinkedIn, making the resume optional if it's more up to date than LinkedIn or the don't have LI.
Most companies (even megabanks) also have strict rules what you can and can't put on your linked in.
A resume is therefore crucial.
Fascinating! I hadn't heard this. Do those restrictions apply to resumes too, and are just harder to enforce? Or are they actually LI only restrictions?
> so most of GHs for people are empty.
Oh, to be clear, I don't ding anyone for having an empty GH. There are lots of reasons not to maintain one. I just like to see it if they do.
Standard Resume gives you a web resume, in addition to the PDF. The web resumes are a good replacement for a LinkedIn profile if you don't have one, and are a better branded and easier to read version of your profile, if you do have one.
Here is an example: https://standardresume.co/r/dana-andrews
So the example resume doesn't seem to me like something to aspire to.
(That said I've been struggling to write mine for a while, so I don't want to imply it's easy.)
It is 2020, every other HR who wants to squeeze out a little more time for themselves (may be to use it to browse insta/whatsapp/FB) would end up using some shit "AI/ML tool" sold by some snake oil vendor portraying it as suberb intelligent automation that aguments recruiters' intelligence for recruitment, at scale.
Every one first has to please the API/ML-model even before a human casts a look at the resume.
Tune resume to be read easily by a machine.
The hiring manager is trying to narrow down a (potentially large) field of candidates. Make it easy for them to spot on your resume the reasons they should consider you.
Your interviewers (i.e., future co-workers) are looking for things to talk to you about, ways to connect with you. Include on your resume conversation starters which will provide you the opportunity to connect positively with them and demonstrate the value you will bring.
I have not been a hiring manager, but I am often the "future co-worker". Often we are handed your resume minutes before interviewing you. If I cannot quickly find anything interesting to ask you about because your resume is too difficult to scan, contains too much jargon, or has too much extraneous information, you may not get the opportunity to tell me those interesting things.
The classic writing advice applies: remove anything unnecessary to convey your message and help the reader achieve their goal.
I am currently mentoring 2 interns, two new college graduates, 3 new college grads from last year and a few others that I met over at other companies or online.
How do I put those skills on a resume? Because I've seen that my colleagues aren't very good at this. They're neither patient enough nor expressive enough to mentor someone and share learning resources, sympathise with newcomers, or slow down their pace and not make it seem so obvious that mentoring or pairing with an inexperienced engineer sometimes does slow us down.
