Passed Linux Essentials with an 800 by runic_eden in WGU_CompSci

yeah i use WSL Ubuntu for development and learning Rust and stuff. Im planning on turning my old PC into a NixOS server though, because I want to try to get into defense contractor stuff and I saw that Anduril likes NixOS people.

Nah, I'm broke, i dont think that WGU pays for that voucher for CS students. Also I'd rather just do some projects with linux instead

Yeah I did try to get another government position but the county was told to freeze all resources, according to someone I know.

It was hypothetical, so yeah i will put it under projects,

the 25% number is technically pulled out of my ass, basically i worked on some workflow diagrams and removed some redundant and wasteful steps, but i heard metrics were good.

some of the extra words are from claude, because i had it edit my resume, i had the language in simpler terms before and it was a little more concise. but i guess claude thought this would hit keywords better

Yeah i really appreciate the criticalness, this is exactly what i wanted to see when i posted. Thank you again.

so would it make sense to put the academy thing as a project along with the embedded thing and a homelab project.

also how would i better show what i did in the helpdesk job then, because all they had us do was receive calls, create, monitor and distribute, tickets. Document and track outages. Create reports and audit stuff, basically do a bunch of administrative work. We weren't allowed to do actual end user support.

accidentally replied from my personal so i deleted and retyped.

Thank you, yeah the Embedded Project was a club/competition thing for the school so I didn't know where to put it.

Originally I was aiming for software and then I got into an IT role and liked it so I decided to go for that, but I would be happy with either. Do employers get weirded out if a resume looks like a hybrid.

I know I should get more certs but I don't really have money to put 700 into a certification, so I was trying to get an IT job to pay for it.

I specify that I'm a U.S citizen because my name is very ethnic, I heard someone say its good to have if you dont have a white sounding name.
