@Web_Lain То есть ты рили обосрал маркетинг рокстаров только из-за цены? В целом: кому не похуй на «пару» тюнинг салонов, кто-хочет тот и купит. Не уверен что их «кучи»
How to make your engineering job application stand out (from the perspective of someone looking at hundreds of resumes):
1. Your resume should be one page. If you really need more space, link to a website. You don't need 10+ bullets for each job.
2. You will immediately stand out >90% of applications if you link a personal website that has some intentionality behind it.
3. If you are going to link your X, you might want to clean up your posts? Seems obvious but... people post some wild stuff.
4. You should link your GitHub. Please avoid doing a profile README that looks like a MySpace profile with the badges and images. I'm trying to look at code and your ability to build interesting ideas.
5. You should try to customize your application to the company. If you're applying to a startup, the courses you took in college probably don't matter as much. Maybe more if you're trying to make it through the ATS screening for FAANG.
6. I'm seeing a surprising number of resumes which don't talk about AI or agents at all. Software engineering is changing and it's a pretty fair assumption that you will be expected to learn or understand coding with AI for your job. That should be reflected on your resume and projects (and I'm not just saying this because I'm at Cursor).
7. Take your LinkedIn seriously. Most devs are here hanging out on X but surprisingly still most people will send around your LinkedIn internally.
8. Find ways to show your unique strengths/tastes/interests. It's nice to see people are smart, well-rounded, and thoughtful. Maybe this is a collection of books you enjoyed and why. Or some writing you've done. Or films you liked. At the end of the day, people want to work with other people they like and respect. If nothing else, it will be a good conversation starter ("oh I love [book] as well!").
9. Do not use AI to write your cover letter or resume text. It's incredibly obvious, especially if you are applying to an AI company. You can still use it to ideate on ideas or phrases, but write it by hand (don't fall victim to the overused in-the-distribution-AI-phrases). See: /humanizer skill.
10. No photos on resumes. Save those for whatever you link out to.
11. Quality over quantity. 3 really good, thoughtful, detailed, interesting projects versus a wall of 27 AI-slop ones.
Remember that hiring managers / recruiters are getting hundreds or thousands of applications for a role. They're not going to spend 20 minutes on every single application. You need to cut the cruft and get to the point. I hope this helps you stand out!
Мой коллега @ymikhin только что выпустил последнюю 4-ю часть своего крутого цикла про API-first подход в разработке веб-приложений.
Для меня такой подход сейчас база.
🤔 Не до конца понимаете, что такое паттерны и зачем они?
Я записал бесплатный курс Patterns Mini
За 3 часа (7 модулей) вы получите
- Обзор всех GoF паттернов: Creational, Structural, Behavioral
- Введение в Enterprise, Data Access и архитектурные паттерны
- Вы увидите, как паттерны работают на продакшене в JS/TS проектах
- Будут объяснены принципы GRASP и SOLID и их влияние на код
– Поймете, как мыслят опытные инженеры
– Я покажу примеры кода некоторых паттернов с разбором
🚀 В результате вы увидите, как паттерны помогают на практике писать простой, поддерживаемый и расширяемый код.
Это тест-драйв обширного курса, после которого вы точно поймете, почему курс Patterns стал переломным для сотен разработчиков, почему разработчики становятся в разы эффективнее, могут получать больше пользы от LLM инструментов как Cursor, Copilot, Claude, Codex и лучше взаимодействовать в коллективе с коллегами и заказчиками.
Бесплатно. Онлайн. 7 модулей по ~30 минут.
