Being good at Leetcode is useless if your Resume sucks

You can be as good as you can at Leetcode but if your resume sucks you won’t even be able to reach the first stages of Interview.

I watched several videos and read posts on how to make a killer resume and here are my takeaways:

  • Have bullet points
  • Divide your CV in sections
  • have work experience at the top if you have more than 1 year of experience
  • Avoid a skills section
  • Add metrics to the bullet points
  • Keep bullet points 1 to 2 full lines of text
  • Keep it simple but detailed enough

It would be interesting to hear if there have been drastic changes people have done to their CVs that benefitted them a lot?
