So much of the resume industry is built on exploring the fears of job seekers. Take the Jobscan ATS Resume Checker which claims to 'beat the ATS bots.' It's all a lie, designed to extract money from unsuspecting and worried job seekers. All false claims, done because it sells.

"Beat the bots
Most companies, including 99% of Fortune 500, use Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) to process your resume. These systems cause qualified candidates like you to slip through the cracks.

Jobscan reverse-engineered all the top ATS and studied recruiter workflows to get you in the “yes” pile."

All made up by Jobscan and others
to sell their solution to a problem
that does not exist

Why is it hard to hire native iOS and Android engineers? I talked with ~15 founders and experienced native engineers over the past two months, and here are five things I found: 1. A regional imbalance. In most regions, there are either too few iOS devs, or too few Android ones.
In some regions, there’s an imbalance of iOS and Android engineers. Startup founders in India shared that they are moving towards mobile apps with Flutter or React Native, simply because they cannot hire native iOS engineers. In India, Android is the dominant smartphone platform, and most native engineers specialize in Android. This means companies which want to ship on both iOS and Android are competing to hire from a smaller pool of iOS engineers.

Anup Cowkur, ​​director of engineering at Groww, shares that a reason why Android is more popular in India, is the cost of a Mac. Many students in India cannot afford a Mac machine, so they use Windows or Linux machines instead, making Android the platform they pick up as a native mobile platform.

I also heard the same from a mobile agency owner in the Balkan region of Europe – Albania, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia. They observed there’s more Android developers in the region, too.

Having open source contributions on your resume can set you apart, especially as a junior developer. It shows what kind of code bases you can work with, the discussions you have, how you handle code and contribution reviews and so much more.
