Hi Everyone I have been job hunting for almost 5 months but with no luck. Anyone out there can review my resume and give me some good feedback on things I lack or what should I change?Any suggestions on which companies I should target? Expected TC $90-110k #dataanalytics #datascience
Overall it looks good to me Perhaps this resume is trying to be a bit of everything- Ml, De, ds, BI. May make sense to build different resumes based on the role. If you are keen on Ml roles, you may be competing with highly talented folks and phds Too little vertical white space May want add a summary at the top Companies on west coast are more open to h1b. Don’t handicap yourself by limiting to east coast How many first round / recruiter discussions so far?
I will make different resumes for DS, BI and DE. I had 5 interview total, 3 Recruiter screening and 2 interviews with hiring managers. All of them gave the same reason - Lack of experience.
It is possible that you are aiming higher or companies aren’t hiring for junior roles As you have had 5 initial discussions but no on-site interviews, I would focus on building a very tight and compelling introduction. Practice delivery, make sure it’s impressive For tech, I wouldn’t worry too much about tensorflow, deep learning, etc. focus on sql, leetcode easy to medium, basic ml algos
Some things I like in a resume: 1. Adding what the company you worked for does if it's a start-up or a smaller one. If not, the division or department as well. I'm not sure about data science but in the roles I used to hire for in my team, core competencies are higher if they actually worked in a company that solely worked on networking or Telecom than someone who worked as a network sme in a larger non-related corp. 2. Push your work/intern experiences to the top. Summary line makes sense in most cases.
Will look into it. Thank you for the inputs.
If you been trying this long you should get actual help and not just sit around on blind.
Could you please guide on where to get actual help? I think i am doing that here.
I find it odd that SAS is the first thing you chose to list of your skills
Added for a job that requires SAS more than other skills
