Hi Blinders, i've sent out more than 200 applications (no referral) but I haven't been able to get a single interview. I don't know people in the companies hence I wasn't able to get people to refer me (not sure if that helps). I've been hitting on recruiters on LinkedIn but no one replies me (not unexpected). I'm looking at the Big Tech firms (specifically Google and MSFT) but i'm open to any company willing to sponsor a visa (H1-B1).
Education: MSEE (top tier US school), BEng in EE (non-US school)
YOE: 10 months (professional), 3 internships
Tech Stack: C/C++, Python, MATLAB, Java
Experience: data analysis, quick ML (LSTM, NLP, CV, deep fake detection) mockups, software development
LC: cool with Easy and Medium, working through Hard problems now
Could anyone help me out with referrals/advice? #jobsearch

They're not going to spend time reading the entire thing if they're not hooked in the first 5 seconds, very similar to skipping a YouTube ad or not.
They read hundreds of resumes a day and will only respond to the ones that stand out.
