This episode is a live recording from the Hacker House fireside chat on February 5th, 2025, in the Codédex community, kicking off our “Roast My Resume” February Monthly Challenge. 🔥
We invited Jovanay Carter, Co-Founder of The Dev Difference & ex-Google Technical Recruiter (and former coworker!), who’s reviewed over 20,000+ resumes in her career. She shares insider tips on crafting standout resumes, optimizing LinkedIn profiles, networking strategically, how to get a referal, and everything in between to land your first tech job in 2025.
Stick around for the Q&A at the end, where we answered live questions from the community!
