The worst part is algorithm questions at interviews. Years of enterprise development experience does very little to prepare you to find the longest valid parentheses. You spend years solving problems with a debugger and a search engine only to be judged on your ability to solve a puzzle on paper. So you spend weeks practicing leet code problems, only to have those skills dwindle after a month.
Also, skip the buzzwords. I don’t want to hear about how detail oriented you are. Show it in your work history, but don’t include all those nonsense words on your resume.
Since I started looking for a new job, I've written my own tool to make sure I get those keywords tailored to each individual job I'm applying to, automates the guess work of what I should change in my resume. If you're interested lmk, may be useful to others as well
