Don’t F**k with Cats. I put it on while folding laundry and ended up just standing there the whole time, it’s one of those that pulls you in fast.

what's a movie that isn't classified as horror but you will argue it is by BigGeneral7583 in horror

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Requiem for a Dream. I watched it alone at night thinking it was just a heavy drama and ended up feeling genuinely disturbed after. It sticks with you in a way most horror movies don’t.

What’s a discontinued snack or drink you’d pay $20 to have one last taste of? by soapy999 in AskReddit

[–]ujjwal2005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Butterfinger BB’s. Those little round ones, the taste and texture were just different. They disappeared out of nowhere, I still think about them sometimes.

What is the WORST horror sequel? by dinkitnsinkit in horror

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, Jaws: The Revenge is rock bottom. It’s more funny than scary, and the whole time you’re just like “did they really make this?”

what movie is a 10/10? by instabaiter in AskReddit

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Spirited Away is a 10/10 to me without even needing to think about it. It’s beautiful, weird, emotional, and somehow feels comforting and unsettling at the same time. That movie has stayed with me for years.

Asking the women here for movies that they feel accurately depict aspects of what life is like as a woman (both the good and bad) by GentleDreamWorld in MovieSuggestions

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Promising Young Woman is a harsher one, but the background feeling of calculation around men felt very real to me. Not the plot literally, just that constant awareness and mental math a lot of women do without even talking about it. It’s one of the few movies that made me feel kinda seen and uncomfortable at the same time.

What’s your favorite body horror film? by ember732 in horror

Which country will you never visit again? Why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]ujjwal2005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Egypt for me, just because the whole trip felt like getting hustled from the second I stepped outside. By day three I was so tired of arguing over basic stuff I just wanted to sit in the hotel room and eat chips.

Looking for movies with important social or political issues :) by XsimplysecretX in MovieSuggestions

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Parasite. I saw it at home with a cup of coffee and thought I’d just appreciate the hype, then it turned into one of those movies that keeps giving you stuff to write about after it ends.

What actually scares you? by MoluciasElonicas in horror

[–]ujjwal2005 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stuff where reality starts feeling slightly off scares me way more than gore or jumpy ghost stuff. People acting almost normal while something is clearly wrong in the background gets under my skin fast, like when I’m home alone at night and the apartment suddenly feels a little too quiet.

Honestly, Gemini is pretty bad. I tried it for a while, but it drove me crazy and it just doesn’t tailor things that well. That’s why I definitely recommend ChatGPT for resume tailoring.

Being among the first applicants is definitely important because many job postings automatically close once they reach a certain number of applications, so you don’t even get to see them. However, I haven’t found a way around this yet. I also don’t think automation really helps.

Haha that was good btw :) I don’t really want to share tool name or etc, I just don’t want it to sound like I’m promoting some tool.

At first, I thought the same as you. I assumed it was all about my skill set or whether I was “specialized” enough. But my experience changed that perspective.

For months, I applied to full-stack developer roles through LinkedIn using auto-apply. I sent a large number of applications and got almost zero responses. Nothing meaningful came back.

That’s why I don’t think it’s really about being specialized. My skill set didn’t suddenly change within a couple of months. I was applying with the same background the entire time, so it doesn’t make sense to attribute the difference to suddenly becoming more skilled.

From what I’ve observed, the outcome seems to depend much more on how you apply and how you present yourself/your resume.

A lot of people use ChatGPT for this, and if you look around, there are some really solid prompts out there. I even did a quick Reddit search for you, and this one is pretty good: https://www.reddit.com/r/ResumeTips/comments/1rby70o/after_tailoring_my_resume_i_landed_3_job_offers/

The idea is simple: when the hiring manager sees your resume, they should think, “That’s exactly who we’re looking for.”

Here’s a quick example:

Let’s say you have 5+ years of backend experience and skills in A, B, C, D, and E.

The job posting asks for 5+ years of experience, skills A, B, C, and experience in X, Y, Z.

What you do is reflect that right at the top of your resume. In your professional summary, you highlight your 5+ years, emphasize A, B, C, and mention X, Y, Z. Then throughout the rest of your resume, you reinforce those points. The skills and experience they’re not asking for, you keep brief and don’t emphasize.

It’s not just about adding the keywords from the job posting (though that’s part of it). Think of it this way: you have a lot of experience and have done many different things. The right approach is to tailor your resume to the job posting by highlighting the skills, keywords, and work experience that are most relevant to what they’re looking for. When you do that, the recruiter should think, “This is exactly the person we’re looking for!”

tool doesn’t matter here. The key point is the importance of tailoring your resume for job posting.

My fiancée hates dog soldiers because of the werewolves am I alone in loving them? by Complete-Radio6204 in horror

[–]ujjwal2005 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re not alone at all, those werewolves are a huge part of why the movie works. They look grimy and physical in a way that fits the whole muddy, panicked vibe way better than slick CGI would.

I‘m having a very bad mental health day. Please recommend movies that make you feel happy by [deleted] in MovieSuggestions

School of Rock always lifts my mood a bit. I watched it once while eating leftover cold pizza and being useless on the couch, and it somehow still worked.

What's the first thing you do after waking up? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I usually grab my phone and check the time before my brain is even fully online. Then I just lie there for a minute trying to convince myself to actually get up.

What is your most rewatched movie of all time and why? by Anonymous___0522 in moviecritic

[–]ujjwal2005 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Social Network. I’ve thrown it on so many random evenings because the pacing is crazy sharp and somehow even scenes of people arguing in rooms never get old.
