What a great idea

I recently finished my Masters in Cyber Security and have a Bachelors in Software Development. As much as I love the technical aspect of my degrees, I think the happiest me would be in tech sales. I had found an opportunity at IBM for entry level sales starting in 2023 and was wondering if anyone had gone through this or the Summit program? Looking for insight on applying and would love to chat with anyone who has or currently works for IBM! Thanks in advance!
I had a interview with the partner where in the last few minutes he mentioned they are taking their time with the process and a final decision might be made a month or two from now so I shouldn’t be discouraged if I don’t hear back for some time. I first submitted an application a month ago. What could this be about?EY
PwC A recruiter from PWC reached out to me to ask if I’d consider a different office the one I applied to, since it’s full. It would be Boston, Hartford, Chicago, Minneapolis, Little Rock, Denver, San Francisco or San Jose. MSA candidate. Is there a fully remote option? Do you have to be in the office all the time? Is the compensation high at PWC? Is there a possible moving expenses? Any insight or advice would help me make a decision. Thank you!

I am happy for you, but for a bowl directed towards helping students succeed, 99% of the time your resume should be one page.
You are battling against automated resume reviews that will cut people immediately for things like that.
I’m not a recruiter, and that may or may not be the case, but it would be cut as soon as it hit my desk and is a consistent detractor.
Congratulations! Love this for you! But here’s something to consider. There are times, many times in fact, where a candidate is hired in spite of their resume not because of their resume. I’m willing to bet you could have also gotten hired with 1-2 pages instead of 4.
And while you may love your 4 page resume, telling other people to do the same is giving them advice that may ultimately negatively impact them. So yes, you should absolutely know yourself and trust in yourself. But it’s also important to fully understand the risk involved. If someone knows that a 4 page resume is very likely to negatively impact their chances but still wants to do it, hey live your life! But one anecdotal experience where it ended up fine isn’t proof that it’s a good idea.
When you make an ill advised decision and then say trust yourself, it sounds like you’re saying it was a good decision.
If I said “People always say that going to an interview drunk is a bad idea, but I thought about it and I feel the most like my authentic self when I’m tipsy! So I had 2 glasses of wine before my interview and got the job! You just gotta know when to take the advice of other people and when to trust yourself!” it would sound like I was encouraging people to drink before their interviews.
congrats! your full name is visible btw
Thank you for the congrats! And I'm fine with that.
Congrats!
That's awesome - congrats! It's definitely important for people here to realize that feedback isn't always 100% accurate, and there's something to be said for intuition.
Wow that is amazing. I know many recruiters and managers who will not even look at a resume that is over one page. But you are right, you know you best. Congratulations on your offer. Sounds like a really great opportunity.
Thats awesome! Congratulations on your new job. It great to know when to ask for help but also what advice you should take and what you should leave at the waist side.
