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.

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.

@@january9765 I started with plain old bash running in shell background. Then I learned python for websockets to retrieve better real-time updates, and that's it. Tech stack is irrelevant.

Thanks Tim. I just passed on your video to my daughter who is in school for computer science. I myself, even though a Comp Sci graduate, feel too old and only end up drooling at these ideas.
You've been posting some great videos lately, mainly about real life useful projects that one can do and I really appreciate that! Keep this same mindset!
Nice ideas. I'd suggest some low-level performance optimization as well. It shows that you know how a processor works (which makes you stand out, sadly).
@@dnm9931 Just do the back of the envelope calculation on how fast the program should theoretically run. Then measure how fast it actually runs with your current implementation through some benchmarks. And in case it makes a considerable impact, think about optimizing it. 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.
Guys how do you think is the best way to build these projects? Following a RUclips tutorial ? Or GitHub repo? Or just gathering information from different places and trying and failing? Thanks 🙏🏾!
Trading bots get shut down all the time and you can actually have legal issues due to building them. This is because the finacial data is usally scraped or used in a way that is prohibited by to the T&C or data that you do not own.
Are you dumb? You know the fintech world of dev log everything? So even if it is for proof of concept, you're using data that could land you in jail... Or at the very least get you banned from using any trading software in the future, when you have your concept @@jdally9872
I didn't know someone of your level could still think that there is anything new or unique. But I'm not surprised, our world is run and led by the blinds
I would be shocked if even 10% of the viewers actually implement these projects in their resume . The majority just isn't that dedicated , passionate about their work .
Its a waste of time building all that stuff, learning web3, game dev for no reason at all other than your resume is not the best use of time. Game development, security and blockchain stuff are a whole job in themselves lol if you follow that advice you'll forever be in tutorial hell because you'll always feel like you have to know everything. Just focus deeply on your specific area build things that specifically target the core skills and you'll do just fine. Its very competitive out there and sometimes its things you cant really control. Most things you can always learn on demand anyways he also admits he learnt blockchain on the job while getting paid so not sure why he asking people to randomly learn it.
Great content. Can you give pointers for the games. Also the computer vision if you dont mind. I am trying to teach kids building appsnand that would be of great help. Thanks in advance.
This nonsense that you need to solve a problem. That should be for the skilled developer to do, not a standard programmer. Setting the bar ridiculously high as per usual for standard coders
Hello @mmaer @TechWithTim what would be the best way of building a trading bot? Following a RUclips tutorial or just gathering information from different places in your own?
@@pawe8713 Actually i developed those projects during my internships. i don't have any link to show them. you are right i must make something to show on my github.
games are not easy people, in my opinion game dev is the hardest programming class that you can put your hands on but f* me its hella fun ^^ dont forget the hard part tho
Hey Tim, Just discovered your channel and loving the project ideas you share! 🚀Quick question: how can these projects help me stand out, considering others might have done or will do them? Any tips for adding a unique twist? Also, when diving into these projects, I sometimes struggle to find good reference code. Any go-to resources or platforms you recommend for finding reliable code to guide my own? Thanks a ton for the awesome content! 😄
Tech jobs are always in high demand. So even if "others" will complete similar projects, you'd still stand out above the majority of applicants who won't have these projects in their resume.
Recruiter: We are hiring for an entry level junior developer job Job seeker: I just applied for this job. I have over 3 years of experience using React and Angular Recruiter: lmfao thats cute. we're looking for 7+ years of machine learning & SQL experience and 5 professional references who can prove you can do the job Job seeker: no wonder why tech is fucked Recruiter: not my problem
Bro whats with the dark circles and fatigue around your eyes in your vids? You eating right and getting enough sleep? I used to have that, then switched to the carnivore diet and I feel awesome.
Don't believe all these yt videos on the topic. What they really care is if you're willing to do 8 hours at 15 eur /hr, you're young, and you have no ambitions. If you got it all but don't have a degree in IT they'll pick the one who also got it all included the degree. These have been 100% of the recruiters on linkedin for the last 5 years. They don't even open the fucking link of your projects, don't worry.
@@TechWithTim If most of the people who know that such projects would give them a huge advantage are still not motivated enough to implement them, then this advantage isn't really unfair. Instead it shows that this person has certain skills and personality traits that might make them objectively a better fit for soome role than other candidates.
Another thing that gives you an unfair advantage is my software development course ;) techwithtim.net/dev
Do you go over things like this in your course?
yes of course! you can also chat with the community, myself and the great coaches we have@@jeraldschreiber3056
Seems like you choose one of the specializations. Do you have a price for choosing all three specializations?
Each extra specialization is $300. So if you wanted all three it would be $800 + $300 + $300 = $1400@@chicanicajfcp
Yeah of course you are selling a course smh

chatgpt does sentiment analysis pretty easily and more accurate than anything you can build yourself so I dont think such will stand out

Thank you. I watched this video 10 years ago, and started OpenAI. Look at it now.
I added these projects to my CV, the recruiter thought I'm a crypto scammer
😂😂
😂😂😂
Great ideas! Do you have a video for the 5th project?
Nice ideas. I'd suggest some low-level performance optimization as well. It shows that you know how a processor works (which makes you stand out, sadly).
Would you mind elaborating on how to do that and when exactly? Should it be a separate project on its own or what?
@@smnomad9276 You could just develop a very fast chess engine or code your own little deep learning framework and then use it in your project.

n3, but only if you have plenty of experience (few months' at least).
Until then, just focus on trial and error and research on smaller projects.
Your video turned out to be gold treasure. Thank you!

Telling people to go out of their way to learn useless web3 stuff and game development just to have a unique resume is crazy advice.
Thank you for these great videos Tim!!
Great ideas and video. Thank you, Tim : )
Now 47k people have these project in their resume😂😂😂😂
I would be shocked if even 10% of the viewers actually implement these projects in their resume . The majority just isn't that dedicated , passionate about their work .

And today I woke up thinking of proceeding with my backtesting and day trading project to learn python
Would thess be useful as an aspiring web developer?
Do you have videos or courses on full-stack training? From web design, and databases to admin?
Yep, you can check my course techwithtim.net/dev
thank you bro for sharing and by the way did you find out the cat?
I have many passwords as well, let me try the Nord pass as well, thanks again Time 🙂
I've never touch game creation (Project 4) what kind of stack and hosting that'd be nice for that?
Nice one!
Can you do walkthrough of these
how can i learn? any step by step books or tutorials? thanks
Awesome!!! Content.
Which camera did you use for the raspberry pi?
I thought the 2nd project was to build a NordPass clone :D
That's why I subscribed To Tim
i guess only learning python is not enough i need to learn other techs as well for such projects you mentioned.
Great content. Can you give pointers for the games. Also the computer vision if you dont mind. I am trying to teach kids building appsnand that would be of great help. Thanks in advance.
Games is based on language you wanna use. For computer vision you could use open CV
Finally a video with cool ideas instead of a how-to-get-hired-101 bunch of lies that infecta the web now
Can you make a video on creating a neural network library from scratch?
now this projects isnt more an unfair advantage, because you show them 😂, but still a nice project list to put in the portfolio
Amazing, we need other projects ideas
Only thing thats missing about this video is where to go to learn how to build these things , and with what languages 😅
Don't be scared man, embrace baldness you are going to look hot
You’re right I should just shave it all off
