7 Mistakes STOPPING you from landing an interview 😱😞

Recently I have been assigned a role of filtering CVs and I was really shocked with those mistakes, So I thought why we don't try to avoid them.

Stop using CV/Resume online templates. I see them killers

Rule #1 while you are creating your CV it MUST NOT be more than 2 pages. an A4 paper size is very enough for your previous 4 companies with a brief description about every one, Education, Skills.

This Applies to you whether you are fresh, +2 Junior or even senior

2 Pages Only Remember don't waste the space with the online CV Templates. Neat and professional Word Document is enough, no need for fancy SVGs.

🚨Warning: DO NOT apply with word document, instead convert to PDF🚨

Your LinkedIn and Github accounts are very important

I see too many people forget to put their LinkedIn and Github accounts.
You add your personal projects but HR or the guy who filters Cvs out needs to an evidence.

This applies to GitLab - Jira or any code hosting platform for version control and collaboration

Try to host your applications online as much as possible

This adds weight to you as seeing your projects in actions has a different impact than reading a description. Let your work talk instead of you.
You can use any free hosting provider just like "Heroku - Netlify - Github Pages - Firebase Hosting" and many more.

Try to use situations to express your skills instead of indicator.

One of the things I learned when I was creating my CV is that numbers and metrics has an amplified impact on the CV Filtration phase.
So as an example instead of saying that you have Leadership and good communication skills, You could say:

I Led a team of 4 UI/UX, Back-end, Front-end, and a mobile developer and got A+ and ranked as the #2 valuable project in the college.

Your LinkedIn Works as your CV also

For LinkedIn give it attention and make sure it's updated with your relevant experience.
Keeping your self active on LinkedIn will grasp attention to you sooner or later.
You can search Online how to make your LinkedIn Profile standing out from others and apply those tips and hacks. Give a look at My LinkedIn I have applied those tips there.

This advise especially for Github Users 😎🤩

Github has a very nice feature called Github Secrets, You can add a README to your Profile. Very neat and stylish.
I have added this to My Github Profile too you can give it a look and fork hima-megahed repository and change information to yours.

There is no need to put your Personal Photo

I see you should not put your personal photo to the CV unless the employer asked that. And believe most of them don't ask for that.
This also will add more space to your projects and will reduce number of pages remember Rule #1 ☝️.

Which cloud provider should I use to build Multi-tenant SAAS?

I'm building a saas and I decided to use cloud, after some research I've done on my own I found out that there aren't tools that could help for example in creating new tenants and routing users to the right tenant automatically.

All what I found from AWS, Google and Azure was explaining how to architect your multi-tenant app.

As an example I want to develop an application like zoho.people
https://www.zoho.com/people/
