Why is resume writing so damn stressful? We’re just writing down some basic information and work history. So, why do I struggle with debilitating writers block every time I try to update this thing? Writing my college thesis didn’t cause me this much anxiety.

I know it’s kind of crazy right. I write 500 to 1000 words every day sometimes more but when it comes to my résumé, I feel stuck nothing‘s ever good enough. I’ll just stare at the screen for a while and I don’t know why maybe it’s cause so much rides in that little piece of paper these days but yeah it’s it’s weirdly suffocating

It's somehow the most difficult writing there is!! It’s supposed to be a reflection of your whole career and skillset, but it feels so much more complicated than it should be. I always get stuck trying to make sure every word is impactful, ugh, the struggle is real!

There has to be resources out there to help you with this, somebody I know uses ChatGPT to help them that way that’s all automated. I would look out for several influencers on socials however, some of them are better than others. And many of them use ChatGPT.

Hello!
I’m a student majoring in Software Engineering. I’m starting my third year in a few months and have an internship where I’m learning more about working with an actual team on real-world projects. However, I feel like I need to do more to stand out and have a stronger software background. Anyone have any tips or suggestions for what I should do on my own time to strengthen my skills?

Is it common to negotiate software engineer salary at smaller companies? I know it’s common at FAANG, but what about for companies with around 200 engineers? I have a counter offer from my current company and on-site interviews scheduled for end of July with google and Amazon, but I’d prefer to go with the smaller local company if I can negotiate the salary (from offer letter) up another 5% or so.

When I moved in-house a year ago as a BigLaw mid-level, I took a 45% pay cut, far more than I was comfortable with (although I was fine with a 20-30% cut). I took the job because it was a great role and I was focused on making the jump in house and developing the skills I wanted, which required me moving away from my firm practice area. Now that my year-end review is coming up, how do I ask my company for a significant pay raise (not just a 2-5% inflation-matching raise)?
