Hi, I've been meaning to apply to the FAANG RPM programs and similar but have been facing a tough time getting shortlists. Could you guys please help me with some resume tips and suggestions; and possibly some constructive criticism on how my current one is (attaching herewith)? Google, Uber, Spotify, Visa, Facebook (Meta) RPM/APM to name a few. Thank you!

I just got a 3 month contract offer as Senior Paid Social Strategist at Meta through a staffing agency. I have a fte with an early stage social commerce startup atm. It’s great pay but the current climate for startup fundraising is so uncertain.
I’m really conflicted between the two. On the one hand, a name like Meta would be a great resume booster (I’ve never worked for a FAANG or big ad agency.) On the other hand, 3 months at a shaky Meta could also leave me in no man’s land. Thoughts? Facebook (Meta)
How much would my tech stack and language be a factor in getting selected in faang or good product based companies?
I'm asking from getting my resume selected to getting an offer.
I read everywhere that only DSA and system design is needed, but I'm still concious about my tech stack.
YOE: 5 years
Tech stack: .NET backend and sql server
Language I'm comfortable with: C#
Facebook (Meta) Apple Amazon Netflix Google Uber Airbnb Atlassian Walmart

May I ask what's motivating you to move in this direction? I normally read the opposite, folks trying to move to DS. Also, any reason you're focusing on DE instead of SWE? Latter pays better
Thanks for your reply! For the past 1 year I have been doing a lot of data engineering projects involving building data pipelines, orchestration, Spark etc and I find it more interesting than building ML models. Since I’m not from a CS background, SWE is a step too far for me so I figured data engineering is my best bet.
