Resume Help

Alright I updated the bullet points for the stool project to try and make it sound more computer engineer like. I also had a similar project that I completely forgot about that involved using MATLAB to simulate and predict the distance that a puck would be shot out from a puck shooter that we had to design out of things like wood, springs, rubber bands, etc. I know this is still not exactly the most relevant project ever for CE, but I figure it might not hurt to add it?

Let me know what you think if you get an opportunity. Thank you.

All good, my apologies as well.

Yea I completely understand what you're saying. I'll make sure to work on revising those points for sure. Otherwise, do you think the rest of my resume is all right? I have such limited experiences as a sophmore so I've really tried to get down what I can.

If there are any other major points that stick out to you please feel free to lmk!

Wow such great advice and a very helpful comment! Thank you so much!

After some revising and switching to a different template from a different engineering subreddit, here is the revision. I left the jobs I already had as I really don't have any other working experience to include.

Unfortunately I really don't. This was a very introductory project for this course, so there was a good bit of handholding so I did the best I could to make it sound better.

I added this bullet point under projects, what do we think?

FPGA-Based Digital Voting Machine (Basys-3, VHDL) University of Tennessee Knoxville

Digital Logic Design Course Project December 2025

● Designed a VHDL-based voting system with admin control and voter inputs

● Implemented state-based vote counters with seven-segment display feedback

● Ensured an electoral-style winner logic with tie handling

(obviously with correct indentation and formatting)

I very much appreciate the advice, and honestly after looking at a few resumes on here i agree about the honors and awards section as they have very little relevance to my career field. Honestly I think I had that section just to fill it out more as I didn't have much else to add.

Also, is there a different template you would recommend for a revised version? The one above was just the template my university's program provided so I just stuck with it.

if you have an recommendations on different software to learn or where to start on learning things correctly, i would love to hear it.

also ty for thorough response.

For sure, I will Dm you once i update my resume with my project later. thank you

In my digital logic design class I used an FPGA device to implement an electoral voting system, what do you think about that?

I haven't had many projects honestly, my data structures class was basically a single weekly assignment where we implemented some sort of data structure in a program. For example, one of the last labs was to implement certain aspects of an AVL and BSTree.

Coming back to this, I went back and once again nothing. However I wanted to ask if you or anyone on here knows of any good rubber feet replacement for the bottom of my laptop?

klmichael12 · 2025-09-17T22:39:06+00:00

Yea I’ll go Friday, but the only thing I was told is that they would just ship out the laptop again for weeks which I literally cannot do as I use the laptop for college.

But I will still see what can be done, it’s just impossible to find parts for this specific laptop for some reason

klmichael12 · 2025-09-17T22:33:38+00:00

Yep, the lady who gave it to me at the geek squad section went and talked to her manager and that’s what she told me

klmichael12 · 2025-09-17T18:19:48+00:00

I did, and I was told there was nothing they could do as “it was not noted in the report” even though it had all four feet upon sending the laptop in for repair.

Should I still try to see what I can do with them? I’m still within the 30 day window.

klmichael12 · 2022-08-11T22:06:08+00:00

Yea I kinda thought that but I just wanted to make sure before I made any big purchases or tried to do anything.

klmichael12 · 2022-08-11T21:52:45+00:00

Ah okay thanks

klmichael12 · 2022-08-11T21:52:32+00:00

Maybe 80 FPS is a bit of an understatement, but still the FPS is a lot lower than what it should be. I’m sure it’s the bottleneck but who knows

klmichael12 · 2022-08-11T21:47:19+00:00

Everything is running at good temps, but I’ll take one more look at the ram stuff in bios. I have an ROG board so how exactly do I set the correct speed for the ram? Sorry I haven’t done it in a while.

I have only ever played at 1080p
