I've been applying to jobs for about 5 months now and I haven't even managed to get a single technical interview, let alone a job offer. Can somebody please take a look at my linkedin and tell me if I'm stupid (www.linkedin.com/in/niyeturner)? Honestly if I'm completely out of my league and just need to quit making software I just want to hear it from somebody, rather than just all of a sudden being ignored. I guess there's also the possibility my web traffic is being attacked by my house mates
- jaggederest 7y agoYour linkedin shows zero experience (<1 year, but two jobs?) and a 4 year gap between college and any technical work, plus you don't actually expand on any of the technologies you've worked on. Show continuity of experience over a long time (even if it's just a project, list it in your experience section) and put "Javascript" or "Python" in your headline. Talk about some of the things you've done, and skip the video game references imo. Don't let it get you down, 5 months is not really that long, and definitely don't give up.

- techplex 7y agoHave you tried Tripplebyte https://triplebyte.com/iv/TpOcf1q/cp https://triplebyte.com/iv/TpOcf1q/cp (referral link). I found their interview process to be quite helpful in my job search. Can you add any bullet points to the experience you have on your LinkedIn? Talk about what role you had and what things you have accomplished in those roles even though they are relatively new.
