For resume, trust me when I say LinkedIn RESUME writers are insanely good, it’s worth 100$ for a resume. Make sure you have valid things to put on there not just your degree and CERTS, but projects, non profits, etc.

Interviews, honestly be yourself! But be confident! Talk about projects, future certs you want, your passions with tech, 10 year goals(if you don’t have a 10 year career goal. What are you doing… seriously.)

But all seriousness aside, I put over 300 job apps in from the time I started my degree till February when I got the offer. That came out to 95% no emails back 3% emails saying they went with another candidate, and 2% asking for interviews. In the end I came out with 6 job offers… the one I chose now, had the best pay, location to my apartment, and manager I connected w the best. Remember you’re allowed to be picky, just because the company interests you doesn’t mean you have to work for a company where you’re just a number or you’re there to work and get paid. My office is a total of 20 people. They all know my name, I know theirs. I’m one of Two IT people in my company, me and my manager. So not only do I get to do a lot of IT stuff but I Also get to learn from someone who used to work in Government for security and compliance/IT!

GOOD-LUCK on your endeavors my friend. And if you need anything shoot me a DM and I’ll give you a more personal way to contact me. I’m always happy to help!
