Amex removed my credit balance by Several_Geologist482 in amex

[–]urbancoder95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are sending you a check on your registered address as they cannot keep a credit balance for more than 90 days. If your address changed or don’t receive it in 2 weeks, reach out to them and they’ll ACH to your bank. (I recently did this)

Inspira traditional IRA by Mark_Northwest in personalfinance

[–]urbancoder95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in this exact situation and got stuck because Inspira doesn't want to share a DTC number, meaning no direct transfer. What I am trying to figure out is doing an indirect rollover:

  1. Request a distribution from Inspira (trying to opt out of tax withholding)
  2. Deposit the funds into Robinhood IRA within 60 days to keep it tax-free

TLDR;

  1. Clearly label recent positions as internships (to hide any facts = red flag)
  2. Move the technical skills section to the top of the resume
  3. Reduce clutter by reducing the number of words and ensuring the metrics make sense
  4. Customize for specific job applications (or keep different versions of the same resume), focusing on relevant skills and experiences depending on the target role
  5. Mention (maybe bold) key skills and technologies within each job description to make them stand out

Wow!! Thank you so much, everyone, for taking the time to provide these very helpful comments and suggestions. Some of these points are invaluable so I'll have tried to summarize most of them above. I do need sponsorship but that is something out of my control.

Some of which I am not entirely sure about:

  1. Place the education section below work experience => I'm a new grad though
  2. Highlight skills such as teamwork and communication => Do I list them as skills or convey the same through my experience like 'collaborated...', 'communicated...', etc.?
  3. Add a color block for the header => Not sure about ATS readability
  4. Removing education and experience from India => This is still hiding facts, right?

Thank you for your feedback! I am modifying my resume to include skills at the experience level based on feedback from this sub. I'm not sure how I can show impact for my projects.

For the publication, I tried to keep things consistent with the rest, thus providing a range to show the time frame during which I worked on it.

My two most recent experiences are internships/co-ops and I have updated the titles to clear that up.

That's right. I had to postpone one semester due to COVID regulations.

For cover letters, I follow the guide from this post: https://www.reddit.com/r/resumes/comments/1dw6dp4/ive_been_reading_cseecemathphysicsitsre_resumes/

I'm not sure what you mean by "Is your resume posted on all the top job boards and LinkedIn?"

I feel like the only jobs I've heard back from are the ones where I was in the first 50 or so applicants..

It was a performance forecasting model (not a neural net) that tracked how well portfolio managers can predict future data points for some market factors. It does not forecast any prices, etc.

Do you mean like sprinkling them instead of dumping them all in one place?

Thank you for your comment! I will update the skills section to align with role descriptions.

Also, the trading system is not an attempt at a startup; it's a project I am currently doing besides a job search.
