I can bet all three of my nuts that nerd has never used UNIX.
Benjamin Ross
I'm applying for lots of financial services jobs so I've put 'professional discretion' but it looks a bit weird.
Anthony King
>Windows 10
Why would you specify version of windows here?
Sebastian White
>languages I actually know more than basic syntax (i.e. the ones I know the standard library well enough to answer simple algorithm/data structure quizzes)
>frameworks I have some experience with that use said languages (Spring, Angular, Django, etc.)
>workflow related tools I know how to use: Git, Mercurial, Gulp, Jenkins, Docker, Webpack, SaSS, shit like that
>Other relevant Software I've worked with and are relevant to the job I'm applying: Operational Systems, Office package ones, shit like MATLAB, R, Photoshop/GIMP, 3ds Max/Maya
If you're applying for a frontend job your MATLAB knowledge is basically useless, but knowing Photoshop, for instance, could be relevant, so pick the ones that actually seem to matter.
Ideallly you should also have a link to your github or some other repository somewhere in your CV where you have projects showing you using the skills you said you have.

Hmm good catch, I was thinking it might make me seem familiar with the modern micosoft tech stack but I didn't notice that it was the only OS release I'd mentioned explicitly.
Christian Richardson
I personally put in anything I had even the slightest amount of experience with. Use PHP once in a vulnhub ctf? Add it to my list of languages.
Honestly, most of finding a job is just getting past HR filters. Most jobs in tech are waaaay easier than they lead on, unless it's actual backend software development.

>c#
>mentioning IDEs

Parker Diaz
>perl
That's not going to impress a lot of people.
Ryan Rogers
I put "I can drink soda through my nose if you give me a straw" and got the job. Got promoted two months later. I credit that talent to extensive cocaine use.
Jason Carter
>OS: Linux
Umm sweetie... Linux is a kernel... do you have experience writing code for the kernel? If you mean the OS then you should write GNU/Linux
Samuel Garcia
Haven't worked since 2013.
My life is a mess and in the past year I'm feeling always sick and tired.
Christian Butler
No one on earth would write 'GNU/Linux' on their cv. It makes you look like a raving ideologue as opposed to a professional candidate.
Wyatt Robinson
Your formatting honestly looks like shit, user. Why do you have it center aligned?
Zachary Reed

Linux IS a whole operating system. Maybe not a desktop operating system like you're used to having, but still an operating system

As someone who sees the slew of resumes come in through greenhouse:
- drop the entire OS crap, just list it under some tech bullet that you work with it
- the IDE crap is worthless, no one cares
- drop "other" completely, most generic shit that no one cares about, it's like saying "team player", no shit, you have to be a team player or you'll be fired
- mariadb is not a "web" technology, it's a RDBMS, change this to a list of technologies, put git under here, only put things under here you have a reasonable degree of comfort working with, explaining, and ready to be drilled to a degree on
