i let people ROAST my resume.
people got no chill.
I let people completely roast my resume. No sugarcoating, just straight-up brutal feedback that stings but sticks. After getting humbled, I built a simple random roast generator cuz why not.

i got REJECTED by EVERY company.
Просмотров 73621 день назад
im sad. I went to an engineering conference, got rejected by every company. Turns out, charisma alone doesn’t cut it. Now I know: you’ve gotta stand out, demand the shot, and actually be prepared. So here’s my journey to level up, starting with a mini coding project on plane takeoffs. ’m learning, building, and maybe helping you avoid the same mistakes. we got this lads #engineering #conference...
i lied on my resume.

my fault. I lied on my resume... well, sort of. In this series, I’m transforming my "dream resume" into reality, one skill at a time. From sending emails to top professors at UTA’s CARIDA Research Center, applying for a CAD internship, and tackling the basics of C programming - we’re taking big steps toward real goals. In this video, I break down each part of my "aspirational" resume, show you ...
my engineering resume is terrible.

don't judge me pls. I realized my resume was pretty much a disaster. So, I decided to change that by building a few solid projects. Over the next 4 months, I’m diving into Python, MATLAB, C, and SolidWorks to level up my skills and land an internship for Summer 2025. I’m sharing my progress with you every week, keeping myself on track and maybe even helping you along the way. Got project ideas?...

    I've been a software engineer for 20 years, but also an engineering manager and director. Unsure about your actual CV but presuming that you are junior engineer, do this: - If you've started to code at college, you are late. You need to make up for it. - Dive into LeetCode and solve all easy + medium problems. Then apply. It may take you 1 year, if you are a beginner. - Learn about architecture such as MVC, MVP, MVVM, etc., as these are common questions. - Learn the basic software design patters because this will be asked in interviews. - Taking a C class will not get you a C job. C/C++ interviews in particular are very hard to pass, due to the nature of C/C++. - Do not go to engineering conferences for a job. You'll have no chance. It's not for you. - Nobody in tech interviews cares about charisma. You care too much about RUclips. - We know that some kids want to be influencers but we want great engineers. Expect more rejections if you're a young RUclipsr. - Google job descriptions of the job types you seek. Say, Senior Full Stack Engineer at Google. - Always show an interesting GitHub with a few deep, interesting, complex, and potentially popular own projects. - Your degree matters. If you have no Bachelor or Master degree, all the points above matter even more. - From my experience: If you are a below average coder, do not apply at tech companies that attend conferences. Work 1 year in some small company, anywhere. - After 1-2 years, you'll notice how much more you know and then, prepared, apply at Google. A common mistake of junior devs is that they think that they have the software engineer skills to join a big tech company. You don't, with few exceptions. Even the interns are often way better than most of your fellow co-students and alumni. Therefore, be realistic and think of it... like in an RPG. You level up slowly but instantly. Take your time. Get better.

      Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such comprehensive feedback! I genuinely appreciate your advice, especially given your experience as a software engineer, manager, and director. Your points on grounding oneself in reality and practicing rigorously really resonate with me. Coding and technical depth are absolutely foundational, and I recognize that consistent practice (like you mentioned with LeetCode) is crucial to building a strong skill-set. That said, I do have a slightly different perspective on the role of charisma and soft skills. While technical skills are undeniably the core of a great engineer, several studies suggest that candidates who are both competent and personable tend to excel in interviews, both technical and non-technical. When facing candidates of equal qualifications, often what differentiates one applicant from another is their personal presence and ability to connect with others. Charisma isn’t just about being likable but also about being memorable and showing a deeper human connection to the work-a trait that can have a lasting impact, particularly in fields where collaboration and cross-disciplinary communication are vital. Regarding my RUclips journey, I see it as an extension of my personal growth and a unique asset. It highlights my commitment to learning and sharing knowledge in a way that is authentic to me. While technical skills are primary, my hope is that my journey-showcased through my RUclips platform-adds a distinctive element to my resume, setting me apart in the sea of applicants. As an aspiring aerospace engineer, my focus isn’t solely on software engineering. Aerospace engineering often demands a broader skillset, particularly in areas like CAD modeling, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD), and understanding physical systems. These skills are crucial for designing and simulating components and processes, especially in aerospace where precision is everything. Many companies in aerospace value this balance between CAD proficiency and programming knowledge because it allows engineers to bridge the gap between software and physical design. Your advice about honing my coding skills is spot-on, and I’m putting in the work to develop a well-rounded technical foundation. However, I’m also working to build complementary skills in CAD and other areas specific to aerospace engineering, which I believe will be valuable to the field. Once again, thank you for your insights, they’re incredibly valuable. I look forward to applying much of what you shared!
