SDE Resume Reviews
I'm switching fields from aerospace where I mostly do scientific computing to a more traditional software engineering job in the tech industry. One hurdle I have is simply not knowing anyone in that industry. I am planning on contacting my old university's career department for a resume review, but I was hoping to get access to someone that actually works as a sde at one of my target companies. Does anyone know of a good avenue for doing this? I don't mind paying a bit of money if that would help. In particular I'll be trying to land a role at Google or Microsoft in the Seattle area. Pardon me if I'm missing something obvious, and thanks for your time.

Hello! In terms of resume screening, you should check out Jobalytics (link: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/jobalytics-resume-keyword/fkiljfkkceaopbpfgfmjdnkiejaifkgd?utm_source=blind&utm_medium=social&fbclid=IwAR1OWWhbqbYPPQjze_2Du2qUCZ2UtcIjz4OXOIjaUzJJarBDqOD6uNXgFUY) -- a FREE chrome extension that can identify missing keywords from your resume based on the job description page. Most companies use application tracking systems to filter out resumes -- if you have the adequate keywords that reflect your skills and also match the job descriptions of the roles you're applying for, it could help you tremendously in the resume-screening part of job searching. Good luck!
