"I don't update my resume, because I don't need to anymore" - The dream, can't wait to be able to say that

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

It is a nice place to be. It takes a lot of hard work to get here.

I have links to my portfolio and my Github account on my resume. I treated my bootcamp experience as pseudo-work experience by describing the projects I built and technologies(programs) used. I didn't include my resume on my portfolio but I have a link in my "about me" section pointing to it. Also, I always use bullet points. Love them! All of my projects are deployed on stand-alone websites. I haven't gotten the job yet, but I'm not discouraged. It takes awhile to get the first job. My only frustration is the job postings that list every language and technology under the sun! My resume clearly states my stack. Recently, I received a coding challenge that included Angular. Not in my stack! Now, I'm teaching myself Angular. With the first job its always hard to navigate the interview process. Good luck, everybody!

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

Yep, that can be an issue. Best wishes in getting your first job. You seem to be on the right track.

@vaccinesoe4773 Год назад

Tim, i wanna say thanks so much for everything you have taught me a lot!

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

You are welcome.

In my geographic area, you really need to push tech names as much as possible and accept agencies will rewrite your CV anyway. Agencies need a good starting point with buzzwords that they can make fit the job. The client won’t see your raw cv or anything like it. When I interview, I like to pick a point and get into some detail to prove if its just speel or honest statements

Ultimate Video For Interview Preparation

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

Great!

@CRBarchager Год назад

As a developer that has been put on the hiring team for our next collegue I completely agree with the points mentioned here. I wanted to be fair and read all the applicants application but I ended up going straight for the resume and if that fit what we needed I would go back and read the application.

One tip with keywords apparently is to cram them in but in white font so they are presentable in a manual review by being invisible but picked up by the scan

@IAmTimCorey 9 месяцев назад

Yeah, that can work, although it can also backfire.

@VALLANCEGAMING 9 месяцев назад

I can almost feel the embarrassment that would cause @@IAmTimCorey

@victorungureanu7406 Год назад

Thank you for this!

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

You are welcome.

@RioTheHitman Год назад

What do you think about so many companies using ridiculous coding tests that dont actually reflect the type of work at the company?

@jjherrera2b 8 месяцев назад

Very helpful, thanks for sharing...

@IAmTimCorey 8 месяцев назад

You are welcome.

I found it's difficult to fit one page resume for people like me has over 20 years of experience and average one project per year so about 20+ projects. With skill set list and education/certificate all I can have is title of each job and year when attend the name of the company to fit in one page. The reviewer will not see anything or achievement of what I do. I am curious to see any sample resume of people similar to myself.

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

That's a good suggestion for a future video. What I recommend is to shorten your resume. For instance, list each company you worked for, but only list what you did at the past couple. Honestly, while the skills you learned 20 years ago have helped mold you into who you are, the projects you did back then aren't relevant to today. Anything older than about 5-8 years isn't really valuable enough to share in a resume. During an interview, you can talk about the various things you learned over the years, but that older code isn't going to be valuable in itself. Also, who you were 10 years ago isn't who you are today. Your more recent accomplishments are what is most important to share. Even older certifications aren't really valuable. Does it really matter that you have your MCSD when it was based upon code from over a decade ago? It doesn't hurt to list if you have space, but don't let it distract from the really important parts of your resume.

@dukenukem9666 Год назад

@@IAmTimCorey Thanks Tim. I really like your recommendation of only having some points in recent projects and just mentioning older projects. I noticed that it is myself which can't let go of the past.I already knew back then the technology is kinda reset every 3-5 years as a cycle and as you mentioned resume only good for 2 cycles. We all need keep humble and keep learning. A small percentage of skills you can keep like language fundamental and architecture but rest won't build up for life like other profession.

@idiot1228 Год назад

The projects I’ve worked on belong to the company Im working for. How can I show off my work to them (recruiters)?

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

Describe what you have done for your company. That's all you can do to "show off" your proprietary work. Then build a sample project that shows off your skills and show that to the recruiters.

@S3Kglitches Год назад

How to have a nice portfolio to show when my portfolio are all the apps I did for my previous employeer and thus are private?

@AdrianB1 Год назад

How relevant is the CV these days when you have a few years of experience and the recruiters contact you on linkedin without having to apply to jobs?

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

It is still relevant to have one up to date. Even if a recruiter gets you in the door, it is still good to have something tangible to hand to an interviewer before a discussion.

@majidmajid2192 Год назад

I quit my job after one year experience and i'm unemployed for two weeks. What is expectations from a one year experience? Is it sound fair: someone who experience with micro services?

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

There isn't much expectation when it comes to one year of experience. It is something, but it isn't a lot. Still, take advantage of it without exaggerating.

@adityarane2880 Год назад

Please use chapters in your video because you have big videos so we can watch video more productively.

@niyaziozturk3967 Год назад

A resume has only seconds (max) to do its trick to win the first race, then has a minute(s) to be into the second round to win the race, then if interesting enough, it will be within a dozen (handful) of candidates finally.

@IAmTimCorey Год назад

Yep.
