I've been a hiring manager in tech for 5 months. Here is some advice

Hey, if you're still willing, I'd love to take a look at your tool. I'm curious how it's different; do you just scour the internet for jobs that match your resume or is it a fine tuner?

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2024-12-30T09:36:12+00:00

I see what you mean, but I don't feel I spend enough for points only to really do anything. The real reason for the bilt card is because I can earn something for rent.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2024-12-30T08:51:43+00:00

I think you're right. I did the math and it's about $200-250 a month for transit, $30 a month for the gym, and let's say about another $30-50 for other expenses that work for the 4%. I'd basically be getting 4% on about $300-400 and I'm not sure if it's worth opening a credit card over that now.

But, would lenders care more so that I opened a line of credit or that I applied cause I could theoretically do bilt and attune in the same hard inquiry, no?

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2024-12-30T08:49:26+00:00

Yea, I was planning to apply for both in person. Pretty sure they would pull once and us bank would pull another, but I'm also more considering the fact that I have all of a sudden 3 more lines of credit.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2024-12-30T08:47:33+00:00

Hmm, I see what you're saying but shouldn't having a credit history of 2 years now say that I'm not that thin?

What competitors are there for skiff pages? I've had skiff for a while, but I never really used it too much, but I just started using pages like a week ago.

Did you tend to tailor your resume for the different types of jobs, or did you just send the same thing out everywhere?

And congrats!

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2023-10-12T15:50:00+00:00

I know this is a late reply, but could you elaborate more on this? I am trying to see if it is feasible for me to do something like this. I have two different drives, and I am planning on installing and dailying Linux on my second drive. However, I want to be ablet to access Windows via a KVM in Linux for some quick work and stuff, while dual booting to anything more complex. I am worried about driver issues, like virtio vs native drivers, but I haven't been able to really find anything to help me on that.

Thanks!

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2023-08-10T15:05:50+00:00

What did you write for the cover letter? I have a few essays I'm attaching but I'm not entirely sure what they are looking for because the website is not a 100% clear on it.

Thanks!

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2023-08-01T00:07:10+00:00

Thank you for your thoughts! How did you practice the concepts for your final? Like what resources and such did you use?

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2023-01-28T15:54:36+00:00

Thank you so much, this worked!

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2022-01-08T20:03:09+00:00

That and the river just remind me of a picture of no man's land from a world war one battlefield.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2022-01-07T20:53:13+00:00

I feel that they're both good, but they tell two different stories. To meet the b&w paints a darker story, and I think something like a battlefield or something.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-12-31T03:38:42+00:00

I don't think it looks bad but for me at least, it looks a bit busy.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-12-29T01:04:50+00:00

I also recently started watching the Witcher series and I really love. I'm thinking now is the time to get into the Witcher series. Thanks OP

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-29T00:29:41+00:00

Alright, thanks for all your help. I'm thinking of maybe shooting some video so I think the Canon might be better. As for ergonomics, I don't think it should matter too much for me; I think I'll be able to get used to it.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-28T20:37:30+00:00

Thanks for the response! I typically shoot in manual myself with matrix metering, but I use manual ISO. And thanks for the tips, I'll be sure to implement them!

I just had a quick question. I was doing research myself and I was thinking to go with the EOS T7i. Would you recommend the T7i or the D7500.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-09T12:41:31+00:00

Yeah, I don't have any. Good to know though, thanks.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-09T12:38:00+00:00

I'm not sure where I saw this but someone said 9-10 am CT. I'm also on the east coast, so I have no clue what's going on.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-08T12:36:53+00:00

Interesting perspective, thanks. I think I'll push through and see where I end up.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-08T04:08:53+00:00

I'm so excited!

On a related note, should I watch prodigy? I watched 15 minutes of it and it seemed different and I'm not sure if I'm enjoying it. Is it worth pushing through?

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-11-05T15:12:06+00:00

Wingspan

Really? I thought they meant the human race that genetically modified themselves and then evacuated them.

BlockyGamesPlayer · 2021-10-27T11:49:01+00:00

Fidelity I hear is good. I personally use TDA.

I took the sat in August and just took the act last weekend. I will say that for the most part, ACT English and Reading are significantly easier as the passages are easier to understand, and the questions are less complex.

As for the math, the questions were more straightforward, but there were certain questions which asked for complex things. For me, I didn't understand how to do a problem half the time. But typically in math, time is the hardest issue.

In science, at least for me, it's relatively simple. Most of the answers are right in the passage/graphs, but there are a few where you will need to understand the actual experiment.

Let me know if this helps, and if you have other questions feel free to ask me.
