CV
Hello everyone! I'm currently looking for a new job... it's been almost 2 months now, and I haven't received any interview invitations from LinkedIn. I'm currently living in the Czech Republic, and local companies respond to CV through internal Czech websites, but foreign ones do not. My assumption is that the issue lies with my resume. I suspect that the problem may be that the job descriptions are not detailed enough and may lack information about the technologies I've used. Or perhaps my GitHub is scaring off potential employers? There are only two mini test assignments there that I've done. It doesn't look like a proper portfolio. Unfortunately, I've never dedicated time to my own projects for a portfolio and focused just on my jobs. Or is there something wrong with my LinkedIn profile? github: https://github.com/AlionaRozlach linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/alona-rozlach/ What do you think? Do you have any advice? Thanks in advance :)

Incredible Interview Experience
(I went for an interview, and it was a blast 👇) Due to some circumstances at my current company, I need to change jobs. So I applied to 3 companies, and 2 of them called me back. The first company only did a phone screening, and since it is a corp I believe it will take a while until they come back with the next steps. The second company invited me for the first interview very quickly. I went there and it was an incredibly welcoming atmosphere. People were super friendly, and we had a nice casual chat to see if there would be a match. Shortly after I left, they followed up with an invite to the second round, and they gave me a small task to complete for the second round. The task seemed very simple, but it lacked a bunch of details. Pause for a moment and think - what did I do? What would you have done in that case? Right. I sent back an email asking clarifying questions. They gave me some clarifications, and then I started implementing it. On my way to the solution, I faced a few more challenges, and I could have made an assumption or used my best guess to proceed. What I did instead was - I sent another email asking for clarification on those additional questions. What do you think has happened? I was surprised with their response 👀. They told me they were very positively impressed. They liked my approach of asking the questions. Additionally, the questions I asked were something they expected. So they asked me to push the solution as is on GitHub, and we will use it as a starting point in the following interview. They scheduled it fast too. In the second interview, we spoke about the potential issues, and then we spoke about how I would approach scaling that bit by bit. The rhythm was something like this: - Let's assume now we want to do this. How would you implement it? - Then I would elaborate on an approach/solution - Cool, now we would like to add this additional thing on top. What should be done then? - Then again, I am thinking and talking out loud my reasoning. - OK, then what would be a limit in that case? Can we do X? - Then again I would think and elaborate

I've got a simple question for you today (not Android related)
Do you want to have 50+ profile views a week on LinkedIn, but zero DMs... Or, 10 views a week, but getting 3+ DMs in your inbox? Engagement is great. But, views ain't gonna get you a job (read pay your bills). It's time for a change. And, you know that. === A week from now, I'm starting with a group of 10 people to teach them how to turn their LinkedIn profile into a job-attracting asset. I will give them training, templates, and CV optimization tips, so they can get 3+ ideal job offers in their inbox in as little as 15-30 days... I've got 2 spots left, and I expect to fill them out this week. Send me a DM with the word "JOB" and I'll send you over the details. (it's not free)

Here is what I did to fine-tune my CV
Unfortunately, today's job market is brutal. I took the following approach to fine-tune it. 1. Shortening ↳ I condensed it into 2 pages. 1 page would be even better. ↳ Removed all irrelevant information (regarding the targeting position) ↳ Used short sentences 2. Results ↳ Point out responsibilities ↳ Point out achievements & impact. The first filter of our CV is an HR specialist. Think about the reader. They don't spend too much time on our CVs. The longer it is - the less likely they'll go over it. They are looking for a match for the position. Irrelevant details don't help. The job of the CV is to get us to an interview. We'll have a chance to talk about the details there. Tell about your responsibilities and the impact of your contributions. Details about specific technologies, libraries, etc will be discussed at the interview. I hope it helps. If you have any questions - feel free to hit me up. What's your strategy? Let's help each other 🙏
