Professional summary for a resume with 2 YOE - yay or nay? Mine sounds a bit cookie cutter but I’m wondering if I should leave it.

From the folks who agreed to keep it above, do you have any recommendations for structure or how to make it stand out? I haven’t found any examples that pop online

Drop the summary. What's there to summarize in only 2 yoe? Do you also have a PhD and publications? If so, then a summary makes sense.

P1 never heard your theory and your comments are just as rude.

Tough time getting past final step: I’ve been trying to make a career shift for 10 months now and continue to get rejected at the last step. Im confident in the value I can provide and do well at presenting it. However, once it’s comes down to me and 1-2 other candidates, I repeatedly have been turned down for the person who has more relevant experience as they’re a safer bet for the employer. Would love advice from anyone who’s dealt with this before. It’s tough to get them to take a risk on me

It may seem obvious, but in my experience partners value trial experience over anything else, so get it however you can.

Even trying a case and losing gives you credibility at my firm because you still did it.

Ex-consultant now in marketing. Used to be an avid follower here and got great insights on companies when trying to exit consulting so thought I’d try here for advice. Outside of FAANG, what are good large CA-based tech companies that provide good pay, WLB, and culture? DD has great people and WLB, but pay is low and you’re not given the tools and resources to succeed + truly make an impact. Google and Apple are ideal but need backups. Like is Salesforce still good?
