SummerOfCode2021 VS mcdowell-cv

https://summerofcode.withgoogle.com/ - sign up as an org, you have until the 21st.

I'm interested in Google summer of code event but missed it last year. I want to attend the event this year and notice that Haskell.org was one of the organizations. It sounds really exciting, I hope Haskell.org will participate in GSoC this year as well. But I have little experience with Haskell, I'm worried about how to write an expressive proposal when I don't even know which projects they will focus on. Can anyone give me so resources or suggestions about the following question?

I also encourage you to look into Google Summer of Code (GSoC).

OSS have benefited from Google Summer of Code, Google has released many fundamental libraries as OSS such as Guava for Java, Abseil for C++, etc. Many have criticized that Google never made money of a lot of its innovations, and instead had others build their own based on Google's shared information (Hadoop, and later all nosql databases, for a quick example; Docker came to be from open source innovations that Google put into Linux for their own container system). Even as Google has begun monetizing, they still open source core parts of their products (such as Kubernetes) for their benefit.

They actually do something like that. It's called Summer of Code.

if you don't land anything, maybe consider Google Summer of Code.

I maintain a project called Meshery and one of the new contributors (who came in to get a GSoC internship) literally asked if I could explain what Meshery is.

This is the resume template I've used over the last 8ish years: https://www.careercup.com/resume

It doesn't hurt to get someone to review your resume if you're not getting bites.

If you can find a friend's cousin's sister who works at a FAANG company who's willing to refer you, that'd be ideal. All the FAANG companies I've interviewed have an internal referral system.

I only got into a FAANG company once as an intern. It was pure luck that I didn't have any leetcode rounds. Every other time I tried interviewing for SWE my fall was leetcode. The good news is there isn't much luck required, its 90% just a grind. You can be the unluckiest person on the planet and still get in. That being said, good luck :-)

Use the Career Cup template: https://www.careercup.com/resume

The resume content itself looks solid and contains keywords but I think that it is not properly structured, which may be causing automated resume evaluators to reject it. Consider adding LinkedIn and GitHub links to it too. Also, it was not immediately clear how many years of full-time experience you had. Mark your experiences clearly as internships or jobs. Additional resource and template that I think might be helpful- https://www.careercup.com/resume

As far as format, you can't go wrong with the Gayle McDowell Method. It's actually on overleaf as a standard template, but her method has good best practice info on writing a tech focused resume in general.

Too long, make it on page of your best work. No summaries, no one is going to read them. Use a different format, here's a link. https://www.careercup.com/resume
