Course description

7.4 seconds - that's the average amount of time a recruiter spends on your resume, according to a well-known study based on eye-tracking movements. In the tech industry, where more than 100 candidates can apply for a worthy position within the first 24 hours, this study is particularly relevant: recruiters usually spend only 5-10 seconds (sometimes even less!) on a resume.

That's why your resume needs to be of the highest quality and thoroughly polished. Despite this, many software engineers make basic mistakes and incorrectly formulate the description of their experience. Wise tips from this course will help you avoid such pitfalls and increase your chances of passing the initial screening to get an interview invitation.

After completing this course, you will:

  • Understand the key principles of creating an impressive resume
  • Avoid common mistakes that ruin resumes
  • Learn to better present your experience to maximize benefits
  • Write the right resume depending on your level
  • Find out what to do if your resume is not effective enough

Creating an excellent resume is not an easy task, as there is too much false information on the internet about what it should be like, often from people who have never worked in top technology companies. This course cuts through all the noise and offers time-tested tactics from experienced engineering leaders who have participated in the hiring process at companies from FAANG to fast-growing startups. By taking this course, you will also receive a real resume example from the instructor, which you can use as a concrete template.
