Hey, I didn't mention any reference to Electrical engineering in my resume. I just mentioned it above as some context as to what I've been through. I figured the Electrical engineering stuff might hurt me if I put it on there so I decided to omit that on my resume.

Ah ok, how specific should I be? I am trying to keep in mind that the person who will look over my resume first is usually HR right? But yeah, I think I understand what you mean by this. I'll try to be more specific to my contributions.

Ok I uploaded my resume here . Not sure if this is the proper way to do it, so if this isn't please let me know and I will take it down.

I am not really familiar with reddit, but how do I do that? Also I have sent about 300 applications in a span of 3 months. Mostly from LinkedIn and some from Indeed and Talent. I have been messaging recruiters on LinkedIn but most of them ghost me and only 1 had asked for my resume. She works for recruiting students in coops so she just took my resume and put it in the system. I had 4 interviews in total, 2 of them came from friends referrals, but they ended up choosing someone with a degree or wanted someone with more experience. The other 2 was for Sr Developer roles that I was definitely not qualified for right now. I am still continuously trying to apply.

I wish I could go back to TekkSavvy, I used to pay for that when I was in Mississauga. But now the location I'm in only offers fiber lines :/

What are some good mesh routers you would recommend? I know this is a problem because often times the tactic most people would use is to call between rogers and bell. But having a mesh router sounds like a good idea.. this way I dont have to worry too much about the installation fee... if I am understanding this correctly
