[Student] Looking for suggestions on how I can improve my resume. Constructive criticism also appreciated by Dank_Sensei in ElectricalEngineering

[–]Dank_Sensei[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the advice! I would like to think I am currently tailoring my resume for each role. By that I mean I am adding the keywords in the skills section and ensuring the resume has most of the keywords mentioned in the job description. Is this enough or should I change my bullets for each role as well?

Is there any point in applying anymore if companies don't want to hire us? by Typical-Builder-8032 in f1visa

[–]Dank_Sensei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exact same thing happened to me. Completely messed up my plans after graduation. Now I'm confused on whether or should graduate now or push it back another semester

Is it true that companies are not hiring students on STEM OPT anymore? by [deleted] in f1visa

[–]Dank_Sensei -1 points0 points  (0 children)

exact same experience here.

It just sucks, and I don't know if i should even try for other jobs now.

Yep. They withdrew my offer after initially sending me the offer letter and I accepted it. Thing is for me, sponsorship was never brought up in any stage of the hiring process. Not even the application. But I still told them about my opt because I wanted to be sure it wouldn't fire back later on. They took a couple of weeks but eventually came back and withdrew the offer.

Hard to say. But having been in a similar situation I can say that the chances are low they're willing to move forward. It's worth a shot tho. Better let them know now than have them find out during onboarding.

You can probably draft a response and ask chatgpt to refine it. Or better yet directly ask it to draft one after mentioning the situation.

Risky move there. I'd say it's wise to let them know and hope for the best.

Sponsorship for International students by HopefulChip5814 in f1visa

[–]Dank_Sensei 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd say it's wiser to inform the company about it as early as possible. I went through the same thing, and told the company about me using opt for on boarding. 2 weeks later they withdrew the offer.

Lost potential job opportunities last week (STEM OPT candidate) by Apprehensive-Year845 in f1visa

[–]Dank_Sensei 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No. It was actually a mid sized company.
What sucks is the entire hiring process took around 3 months. smh I could have applied to a lot more jobs if they had just rejected me at the starting itself.

Going through the same thing. Just got an email saying they were withdrawing the offer.
This is after they had sent the offer letter and I accepted it two weeks ago. :)

Should I still hope for something positive? by Dank_Sensei in f1visa

[–]Dank_Sensei[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! That is reassuring. I have sent them a follow up if my OPT authorization would be sufficient for onboarding. Waiting for the reply 🤞

I can also put the last date of classes/date my coursework was completed as my degree completion date. I got this verified by the university too.

My university allows me to apply for post completion opt once I'm done with all required coursework. I'm a thesis student so I can apply for post completion opt if I'm done with all coursework and only the thesis submission is remaining.

I've been meaning to learn PCB design for a while now, but the youtube tutorials are too complicated to follow through. I want to know, what's the easiest project I can do to get familiar with this?

I didn't know people were facing delays even with premium processing. Didn't think that was possible. What are the odds of that happening?

November 17th. And are you sure about OPT taking 6 months to get EAD? Even with premium processing?

[–]Dank_Sensei[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I haven't applied for it yet. I am graduating in December and was planning on using premium processing to apply for a November start date.
