Then there is my friend, who hooks up with woman using Shaadi.com

Its an Indian marriage portal site where folks post their profiles with the intent of getting married

The recruiting landscape is so competitive that most of the women recruiters use a-la-Tinder profile pics hoping to get an edge over others, at least to nerds in Silicon Valley.

NGL, I reply to some recruiters because they're gorgeous.

How would you structure this resume?

Student startups & non-CS undergrad ->

burnt out/bored, quit, was lazy doing part time CS prereq classes for a year ->
breadth oriented masters in CS (finishing in spring)

Targeting PM roles cause people work comes easy to me (vs applied science/MLE coding) and ops cost center budgets suck. Doing formal CS just cause wanted to learn, fill in gaps.

Hey everyone - I could do with some advice. Not sure what I am doing wrong, but I am having a hard time getting interview calls. I am trying to pivot from consulting to the industry and targeting project/program management roles. I have been doing this work for 7+ years now (total YOE 12 years) so certainly have the right skillset. I have tried a couple of referrals too but that didn’t help either. Any advice you guys could provide would be helpful. Thanks!

I have a coworker who keeps spouting comparative odds and situations in regards to the safety of the vaccine. Such as: you're twice as likely to get hit by lightening than have blod clots from JJ.
