I was in top 5% (1700th out of 35000 participants) at fb hacker cup last year and received a top-2000 t-shirts. Would you put that into your resume? If no, why? Further info, I am an ML researcher. TC:210k
For everything that you put in your resume, always think what advantage it gives you compared to other candidates. It's not your autobiography, and it has to be relevant.
I’d sooner put what percentile I placed over 1700th
I would just say 5%. Saying you ranked 1700 sounds a bit lame to someone who is not familiar with competitive coding.
