Get More Interviews: Write A Stellar Resume As A Software Engineer
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.
