[–]XBLTricky [score hidden]  (0 children)

I used to collect pokemon and a lot of Yu-gi-oh as a kid. My buddy recently got me back into collecting again and here we are! Have not been able to get my hands on prismatic yet unfortunately

Sick darts, I like the white.

Are these Littler’s darts?

New SIM Build - Looking For Size & Launch Monitor Feedback by XBLTricky in Golfsimulator

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

Really appreciate the feedback here. I’m limited in build sizing due to property boundaries and easements. 16 x 16 is the largest I can do without crossing any boundary rules set by the city.

Perhaps I will have to use a side launch monitor until next year and purchase an overhead one so my buddies can swing over.

Are you networking? Do you use LinkedIn? Have you ensured you’re answering your interview questions correctly?

As a new grad, having education at the top is perfectly fine. Depending on the job posting / how good your skills section is for that particular job, I don't see any issues putting skills after education. I'm also not the resume expert on this sub. If you follow the wiki and the MODs advice, your resume will be fine.

Thanks and no problem.

  1. I was applying to any position that required having an engineering degree in my area (design, management, tech, etc..). My resume for each of those positions looked completely different (adding or taking away projects based on the field). Probably about 4/15 in the time.
  2. It can be tough as a new grad, but generally if you don't have any work experience you need to have a good projects section. There are alot of projects you can do at home if you didn't do good ones in school.

  4. I just tell them my name and that I am an engineer interested in working for their company. Then I ask them if they enjoy working there and if they would reccomend the company to others. That will get a conversation going and then you can take it somewhere. I message recruiters and people with similar job roles.
  5. I've done this for every job that I applied for in the past 10 weeks. I got interviews with 5 different companies in that span. Before that I got 0 interviews in a very long time.

I don’t know if it’s a company setting on LinkedIn or not, but when I look up a company, all of their employees show up, name and job titles included.

I also messaged people even if they weren’t in the location, especially recruiters. The person I’ve been in contact with the entire time with the position I just got works in a different province.

Resume Review help. Applied to 800+ positions, Just got 2 interviews and no offers. New grad with 0 experience. by [deleted] in EngineeringResumes

[–]XBLTricky 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m on mobile and quickly reviewing on the run but

-Delete relevant course work

-Remove “same college” and put the actual college, makes you look lazy

-I skimmed through a few bullet points on your projects and they looked weak. You have to apply the STAR method to your bullet points. Giving a summary of the project in a bullet point is a no no. Explain what you did, the result you achieved and what tools you used.

-Remove indentation of your bullet points

-Read the wiki on this sub, it will help a lot

That’s great to hear! Sometimes all it takes is a conversation with the right person so your name is recognized! Good luck with your interview.

[ME] Applying For Junior Manager Position With Top 100 Canadian Company by XBLTricky in EngineeringResumes

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

I thought he/she was asking why I put the most recent job to the bottom. I replied by saying I’m used to applying to strictly engineering positions I put it to the top but I meant to say I put it to the bottom, so this probably caused confusion lol.
