Got a bit less than 4 YOE and shooting for an AMD role. I got promoted to a supervisor early in my career, so it’s kind of coming naturally. What are my chances, though?

I became an AD at year four and I’m looking to be a director now at year five. It’s possible if you’re good at what you do and you’re convincing in interviews. Just be confident.

That’s encouraging, thank you! Would you like me to take your position as you become a director? :P

funny

I became an AD after 4.5 years - I jumped around a little bit making lateral moves as I never quite liked the fit at some of my past agencies. I think its easily obtainable to move up to AMD level given your years of experience but the current state of the job market might prevent that until things settle down

Any thoughts from others new to the field or advice from more experienced practitioners?

Resume/LinkedIn question:

I am a senior student graduating in a couple of months. I am going to join Google this fall as a SWE. My previous work experience includes an internship at Google, and a summer spent working on open source (PostgreSQL) during Google Summer of Code. In addition to a lot of college coursework projects (CE major). Most of these projects are worth mentioning and they cover a diverse range of fields.

At what point should I drop coursework projects from my Resume/LinkedIn?
