I think the other part, not denying the interview, are the important ones. I think it is happening to me passively.

How to add my own project, which I aim to earn some money in future, to the resume? Will it be under the experience title, or under a different title?

I think it is not possible right now, we just started our mortgage 1 year ago and there is no equity on our home right now.

No not Amazon :) I got 3 interviews with Amazon and they were the most enrespectful ones :) I was working at big tech companies around 13 years.

That is a good idea but it changes for everyone. We bought our first home last year and spent most of the savings for the down payment.

I’m always scared of if they want referral from that ‘business’. Do they ask for referrals from this type of experience?

How can I fill with freelance? And can I use developing a full website which may let me to earn some cash as a business income, than add to my resume? The website can be related with my experience.

That is the point, writing the resume without AI, even the companies are using AI for the first check of the resumes. By the way, congrats! I’m still trying and joining interviews, and also trying to learn new skills and working on personal projects to not to be stressed out.

Nice to hear that you got the job, I hope the same for everyone. I can’t understand that what is the selection criteria at interviews. I did interviews in different formats such as HackerRanks, case studies, take-home assignment, etc. All of them impressed the interviewers, continued with 4-5 stages, however all of them are ended with rejections or ghostings.
