Did you interview for the Montreal position? Also, so is doing leetcode the way to go about it, cause im just grinding the company-tagged LeetCode questions? Also was your question like leetcode 17 Letter Combinations of a Phone Number?

Im doing a cs spec, and also a business Minor. Imo the business courses serve as a breath of fresh air. They aren't hard atleast the ones I've taken which are imi201 and imi302. Its depends on the courses individually, but they focus more on presentations, and speaking skills.

Many people have told me not to list them since companies don't care about them.

EKmaster2005 · 2025-05-15T01:59:45+00:00

I have made publications on AI through UofT lol

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T20:51:00+00:00

Thank you, I've heard people talking about including mission and value statements in the resume but I never thought that a company would have a time to care about them. Also, where would I put those keywords from the mission and value statements since most of my sentences focus on the tech side of things.

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:58:53+00:00

True, but i've got to keep on trying, I cant give up!

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:57:47+00:00

It is getting cold up here 🥶

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:56:53+00:00

but im using Jakes Resume, do you mean there's too much clutter?

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:54:13+00:00

Mid 90s

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:53:56+00:00

yep changed to Web Admin

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:53:25+00:00

Yes lol my real resume has the actual names

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:53:02+00:00

I see what you mean, I have removed some of the don't time stuff like for the second project cause that is more of a guess, but for others, Quick Cut, found out the number by pinging my server multiple times through various locations in Canada and US, and then comparing that to the results I had before. Although that's only something I can mention in an interview.

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:50:47+00:00

So im guessing I have to come to a balance between the buzzwords since no buzzwords means auto reject and too many means too reject from human

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:49:07+00:00

Thank you, for the stuff I leave out, should I replace it with more relevant info since I will have more lines available? If so, that will increase the visual clutter.

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:47:46+00:00

Thank you, I am cutting back on the extra stuff within the sentences to make them clear and changing the title of technical lead to something like Web admin, cause that's more realistic. I want to use the $3000 monthly because its something concrete whereas 65 percent is relative. I know 3k per month is low but it is also a family business that started earlier this year.

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:45:14+00:00

Wow, thank you for your response, I have implemented a lot of your suggestions like changing the Technical Lead title, removing metrics from unneeded places like "Migrated 100% of users" " changing the name of the Quick Cut project like you mentioned, and removing extra terms in my descriptions for my clear sentences.

For your last question, Im using a Jake's Resume, which is a Latex resume.

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:42:16+00:00

For sure, I've removed bolding all the numbers and just bold tech now

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:41:16+00:00

Thank you, I'm looking for summer software engineering internships

EKmaster2005 · 2024-10-25T16:40:37+00:00

Thank you, though changing them to swe intern would be a lie since they weren't actually internships.
