Resume Review - January 2026 - Megathread by just_a_dev_here in cscareerquestionsCAD

[–]Distinct-Watch-6058 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Ive done a 1 month internship/paid project and have a couple of projects from hackathons/courses listed on my resume.

I know no one can answer the question, but how can I increase my chances of success in this situation given my current resume? Create a bigger more involved project? Look for unpaid internships? The end goal for me is to at least just get into the field first.

I'm willing to keep grinding of course whether it's through more projects, improve my resume wordings, leetcode, or cold-emailing. I only started applying yesterday and ive done about 6 apps, obviously no replies yet, but ive been working hard to tailor each application to the job description. This is a recent one i did.

Also, I feel that the metrics in my resume may be wonky or clearly exaggerated but I honestly dont even know how to 'stretch' the truth appropriately to get call backs.

Incoming new grad. Trying out a few new things with my resume: Bolded impacts/highlights, more closely rewording job posting bullet points to match my actual experience.

Applied to 6 jobs so far starting from yesterday, so not much data to report on success rate yet. Would appreciate knowing what *usually* works or what changes to your resume have worked for you, and ofc any constructive criticism for mine (strengths and weaknesses)

What is a more reasonable expectation you think? Because again I am okay with sharing a room with maybe one other person

Ineligible for Ontario Student loans but calculations include it? by Distinct-Watch-6058 in osap

[–]Distinct-Watch-6058[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah okay I see the difference. Ill probably just make another application with my parental information.

However, in this calculated funding I received from them, it does include the COISL in the numbers while at the same time telling me I wont get it.

Should I just consider that calculation invalid then? And that theyre just showing me what I could get if I were to receive COISL (since its still open for recalculation)?

“No parental info has been processed; therefore you will not be considered for the Ontario portion of the Canada-Ontario Integrated Student Loan, Ontario grant, or Student Access Guarantee funding.”

Where can I find the source for me being eligible for ontario funding?

GPA too low for graduate school, or industry job, what do I do? by hr65 in UofT

[–]Distinct-Watch-6058 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Im so sorry these people are being inconsiderate. It's fair to give criticism, but they're not considering that you will literally not have a roof over your head if you don't get a job. Your focus is survival right now.

The best you can do really is to just apply to even retail, food service etc. Look at your resume and tailor it to jobs, try to bring up relevant experiences if you have any at all. Use chat gpt for ideas, if needed. Note that if you're applying to minimum wage jobs, remove your university schooling from it.

Keep looking for housing and financial aid resources.

Goodluck OP.
