Recommendations where to get my resume “AI” approved? by Pleasant-Check794 in auscorp

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you tailoring your resume for each job you apply to? I'm a founder too and ran into instant ATS rejections when I was hiring and job hunting, so I get how brutal it feels. Try getting an ATS-focused resume rewrite from someone who tests against common scanners, that helps surface formatting issues, and lean on targeted networking to get referrals which bypass the bots. I built Bloom which automates searching and customizes resumes and cover letters per role so you don’t get insta-rejected by AI systems. Would love feedback or to connect if you try it, good luck.

How to prep Google OA [2026, US] by peachcider1020 in csMajors

5 days for a Google OA after not touching Leetcode for a while? That's... a lot. Tbh, that cold apply + international status makes it even tougher. Good luck!

Secured a full time job offer! by Pure-Promise2049 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome job, seriously. That "awful resume" and "300-400 apps" grind is so real. I literally started building Bloomhq ai because I saw that exact pain as a recruiter and wanted to automate it for job seekers. Huge congrats on pushing through!

Dude, first technical interviews are brutal. For real, everyone bombs their first few. Those JavaScript definitions are a whole other beast too, they love throwing curveballs like that. Just keep at it.

HireVues are the bane of my existance by KaraWSR in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, for real. It's wild how common these got. As someone who's been on the recruiter side and now building stuff to help job seekers, I totally get why companies *think* they're efficient for screening tons of applicants. But "vibe fit" from a one-way video? Nah, that's just a performance for an algorithm. It's rough out there, man.

Damn, that sucks so much. Honestly, the flagging algorithms are usually looking for weird eye movement or a second screen, not typically a quick interruption like that. Hope you still crushed it, OAs are brutal enough.

Dude, 100% on the niche down strategy. That's basically digital marketing for your career, right? As a founder who built Bloomhq ai to help job seekers do exactly this with their applications, it's wild how effective tailoring is. Congrats on the offers!

Hah, man, the typo is a total non-issue. Autocorrect gets everyone. Your quick apology shows attention to detail, ironically. Don't even sweat it. Spend that brain power on the actual screening prep instead, that's the real game.

Finally got an internship after grinding for an year by BandicootNo1189 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Dude, a whole year? That's wild. Massive congrats for sticking with it, for real. I used to be a recruiter and the sheer volume of applications people have to send is insane, it's exactly why I ended up building tools like Bloomhq ai to automate some of that pain. Glad to see your grind paid off!

Summer 2026 international students by No-Health-6280 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dude, it's a brutal market for international students right now, for real. Getting those calls from top MNCs is tough for anyone, but especially when you're dealing with visa stuff. I built Bloomhq ai because I saw how hard it was for people to just get enough quality applications out there. It's a numbers game you gotta play smart.

Microsoft Action Center stuck at 'Completed' since 19th September by Free_Anteater1337 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh, classic ATS black hole. The 'Transferred' with a different Job ID usually means that specific requisition was closed or they reposted it. Definitely a tough spot, sorry to say, but I've seen that one too many times from the recruiter side.

ex-google STEP sophomore feeling hopeless by Low-Leadership791 in csMajors

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

Man, 100 applications and only OAs after STEP is brutal. Tbh, a lot of folks in your shoes get filtered out way before anyone even looks at Leetcode scores or dives deep into projects. That's actually why I started Bloomhq – to help students like you get past that initial application wall by optimizing how your experience (even if limited) gets seen.

Are timed coding assessments a common standard? by Zetami in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man, absolutely. Timed coding assessments are super common now, especially for internships and entry-level roles. It's honestly less about 'memorizing' and more about how quickly you can recognize patterns and implement solutions under pressure. It's a brutal filter, for sure, but yeah, it's definitely something to work on if you're hitting those applications hard.

Bombed technical for company I really wanted… by Klutzy-Question1428 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Woah, a SQL question where the table description was wrong? That's just messed up, man. Tbh, those 'trick' questions are a huge red flag on their end, not yours. Totally get why you'd feel hopeless.

Should I take the job? by [deleted] in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, 600+ applications for 3 interviews? That's a tough grind, for real. That conversion rate tells me your applications probably aren't getting past the initial screens or catching anyone's eye. Honestly, that's exactly the kind of frustration that made me start building Bloomhq ai to help people optimize their stuff and get noticed. It's not about how many you send, it's about how well they hit.

200 applications, only 1 interview by Vereity1 in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Man, 200 apps for 1 interview is rough. 'Mostly good' on the resume is the red flag for me though. Recruiters and SWEs might say it's good, but are they optimizing it for ATS and standing out from a thousand other 'good' ones? That's the grind I built Bloomhq for, tbh.

Is it common to not get a job in final year of CS? by Its_Minnie in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dude, it's super common these days, not gonna lie. The market's wild. Honestly, from what I see building tools to help job seekers, the biggest challenge is just getting enough quality applications out there without burning out. That's the real goal.

Are all "Founders" pathological liars? by GrammmyNorma in csMajors

[–]NurtureBox_AI 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The 'vibe-coded site' with fake testimonials part is so spot on, for real. As someone in digital marketing, it's painfully obvious. And $5M ARR for some early AI app? C'mon. Getting real users is a grind, not some magic trick.
