Currently an EM (actively doing IC work) with 10 YOE at 5 startups. I've worked for the same 3 bosses, so I've not needed a resume in a long time. After seeing all of the crazy TC posts on here, I decided apply to EM/Staff SWE roles at public/soon-to-be public companies. Resumes v1 and v2 got me nothing but rejections. The video below helped be create v3.x.x, which had a 70% interview rate. Tailoring the resume for the job, like suggested in the video, is why I moved to semantic versioning.

v3.x.x Results
Meta, 👍 EM
Google, 👍 Staff SWE (Likely would be down leveled like my referrer)
Coinbase, 👍 Staff
Snowflake, 👍 EM
Box, 👍 Staff
Stripe, 👍 Staff
Linkedin, 👍 Staff
Shopify, 👎 Tech Lead
Dropbox, 👎 Senior SWE...really dropbox...(I had a very strong referral)
Netflix, no replay to applications
I would have applied to more, but Coinbase moved quickly and I like the space.
Old TC: 200, Options
New TC: 237, 400, 15%
