      also i'm grading resumes and cover letters today -- i'd really like to give my students some industry level feedback! so, folks in tech & games & adjacent -- what are some of the most egregious errors you've seen in resumes/cover letters, and what is something you'd love to see?

      - they don't talk about why they want this job at this company specifically in cover letter, too general - padding resumes with irrelevant extracurriculars I have to skip over - CV roles describe What They Did, not What They Achieved - sent in a doc format I cant open in browser

      The best resumes are a story that describes a person's work experience and relevant education. Each listed job should have bullet points explaining what you achieved concretely (data helps) - "During my time as social media manager we grew the accounts by 300% YoY" etc

      The best cover letters succinctly explain who you are, why you're good for this job AND why this job is good for you - it's a two way street. I'm disappointed at the number of candidates I interview who haven't done their research and haven't played our game :(

          this is ALSO a struggle! trying to get students to write to the job, but also not spending a whole paragraph on how much they love X game, or all the ideas they have about how to improve it.

          Yeah, my first CV was so bad for this, shocked I got the job. Glad these students have a helping hand

          Final thing: portfolios rock! Nothing proves you can do a job better than a bunch of actual examples of similar work you already did (even student or volunteer stuff). This is harder for certain roles but art, design, programming, writing, even comms can have portfolios
