    MOST software engineering resumes are the exact same - same projects, same skills, & same qualifications. If you want to stand out you need to update your projects and work on things that are unique. In this video I will show you 5 different projects you can add to your portfolio to set you apart from the crowd!

      1. Building an automated trading bot, even if it fails, can be a great story and showcase real-world application skills for a resume.
      2. Scraping tweets, RUclips comments, and other online content to analyse sentiment can be a powerful and advanced project that stands out on a resume.
      3. Building a blockchain-based voting system showcases understanding of large-scale system design and architecture, standing out on a developer resume.
      4. Building an online multiplayer game can be a great project to have on your resume and can showcase various aspects of the job.
      5. Building a face detection system for a Raspberry Pi security system can be a cool and practical computer vision project with real-world applications. Computer vision projects can make you stand out and give you an unfair advantage in the real world.

    I developed a trading bot in 2017 and consistently include it in my resume. I agree with your point; it certainly catches the attention of hiring interviewers. They often ask, "How did it perform? Was it successful?" My response is always candid: the bot functioned as intended, but if it had been truly successful, I wouldn't be seeking employment right now. Interestingly, this experience has been a key factor in my being hired 100% of the time.

      There's no secret sauce to optimization. You need to be able to judge how much work a processor can pull off and then figure out why it's slow and optimize.. Plus you need a good understanding of how a processor works to come up with proper solutions. That's the whole skill.
