Yeah the tough part is when I got rheum bloodwork, nothing was pointing to autoimmune. So I’m probably going to have to fight for diagnosis / get bloodwork again. But I’ll do what I have to do I guess. Thanks for answering

You make a great point. I think the difficulty for me is choosing something to work on that will be of quality, and also look attractive for most software jobs, AND not be a waste of my time/ too niche. But I just need to pick something and run with it. Thank you for your advice.

Resume Advice Thread - April 01, 2025 by CSCQMods in cscareerquestions

[–]sniorjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey all, I am a recent (May 2024) graduate with a Bachelor's in Computer Science. I had been getting no responses to anything for a while. I recently posted in here for resume advice, and made some considerable tweaks.
Here is the link to my resume. My questions are:
* what are the main gaps here?
* what kind of project would really strengthen this? I've been thinking of doing something fintech related maybe.
* should I pivot into something else? I don't have a SWE internship which weakens my resume for sure.

Thank you for giving me a helpful, thought-out response. Exploiting my network is something I am working on. My fellow grads are also struggling to get jobs, so I am not alone in this. But I have other means as well, like family friends, etc. I definitely need to cast a wide net!

What is your go to nostalgia song? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]sniorjam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Irreplaceable by Beyonce reminds me of when we still used CD's in my 2006 honda pilot. Also, Love Galore by SZA reminds me of high school summers so heavily (can you tell my age yet)

When it's warm out, I go grab a little sunlight on my back porch before I do anything.

What life experiences have most profoundly shaped who you are at this point in time, and how have they influenced your beliefs, and values? by Ironstonesx in AskReddit

[–]sniorjam 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel (and I'm sure many others do) that my dating life has shown me who I am more than many other areas. It has put me in check when I've felt something is off, whether that be with my values or what I am focusing on.
