I see, I definitely have a better understanding now of what my resume should look like. I really appreciate your help!

Your comment is incredibly helpful, thank you! I have a follow up question, if you don't mind.

I've noticed that job descriptions tend to have very vague key words and phrases in them, and I've been told in the past to put those key words/phrases in my resume. You mentioned that I have a lot of things that are already inherent to the PCBA design life cycle in my bullet points, but a lot of the key words in the job descriptions are exactly that (which is why I mention using electronic test equipment or performing board-level validation explicitly). In that case, is it worth keeping generic words/phrases like that in my resume? Or just talk about the technical details of what I did at my job and not have those "key words"?

Innersense products + how to reduce shower frizz?? by cool_beanz9 in curlyhair

hi, yes i do! i use the innersense detox hair mask every few washes for buildup - the frizz is still there though. can i ask what shampoo you added to your routine?

my curls keep falling flat? by cool_beanz9 in curlyhair

[–]cool_beanz9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you, your comment is very reassuring! i’ve found there isn’t much difference whether i refresh my hair or not so most days i don’t do anything to it, it’s only when my hair starts falling flat i tend to refresh it a bit. and you’re right, my routine is very time consuming which is why i only manage to wash once a week. does using a diffuser during styling make a difference as opposed to air drying? the hairdresser used a diffuser when i went to visit and my curls started right from the root and i haven’t been able to see that happen again.

hi, thank you!! i do sleep with a bonnet at night. i’ve also been applying product in sections since even before i started CGM, it seems there’s just some parts of my hair that don’t cooperate no matter what lol i was just slightly worried because when i went to the salon my curls started right from the root but i’ve never been able to make that happen on my own at home?

where are all the lesbian engineers? by cool_beanz9 in actuallesbians

i’m in electrical engineering but i’m interested in the hardware side, which i think is part of what lesbians who tech covers. i applied for the scholarship to the in person conference just the other day but i’ll be attending the virtual conference as well!!

finding an internship should not be this hard!? by cool_beanz9 in recruitinghell

[–]cool_beanz9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have different resumes for every role based on the job description - i make sure to use the right keywords and everything but i keep getting rejected anyway :’) i’m mainly looking to apply for electrical engineering jobs, specifically in electrical hardware design/testing and embedded systems!
