Tips
Make it count.
What hiring managers look for, and how to get the most from this template.
- 01
Group your skills
Split them into areas such as Languages, Cloud and Data. List only what you'd be happy to be interviewed on.
- 02
Show engineering impact
Speed, reliability, cost and scale: "cut build time from 20 minutes to 6" says more than a list of tools.
- 03
Link your GitHub
Add it to your contact links, and pin the repositories you'd like a reviewer to open.
- 04
Mention your work permission if it helps
If you hold Stamp 4 or Stamp 1G, say so. It answers a question many employers will have. Leave it out if you don't need permission to work here.
- 05
Keep certifications current
Cloud certifications expire. GrandJob shows the date each one is valid to.
