Jobs

when you create a resume... how much do you buff it up?

i have a (really) bad tendency to undermine everything and don't know what to put for skills

building reel.farm and farcasterstudio.com

don’t bluff up
try to be accurate and quantitative though 
google up “STAR resume format”:
Situation 
Task
Action 
Result

don’t have follow to the dot, but it’s a good framework

I think if someone's not getting interest from their resume, it's not because they haven't fully optimized the STAR format

sure, there are people who haven’t done anything relevant and they’ll be ignored for that reason

but there are also plenty of experienced folks with good xp, they just don’t know how to present it well for a recruiters to shortlist them

especially loads of introverted ppl do that

doesn’t hurt to optimize

It's hard to optimize when recruiters' idea of feedback is ghosting, or being gracious enough to send an automated template rejection email
