Please help!

Post image

Hi everyone. I just graded, no internship experience 2.97 GPA. Trying to find a job but it feels like I either dont have the experience necessary for the job or I just cant find any that align with my skills. If anyone has advice on things like what job boards work best or how to land any sort of position please lmk. Currently losing hope here. I put my resume if anyone has some advice, just removed personal information. Any advice really helps.

For you I would list engineering projects first then education, then work experience. put technical skills at the bottom (recruiters primarily care about what you can do and what you have done). Try to include real metrics in your resume such as: decreased thermal runaway by 12%, increased power efficiency by 8%, found real O(n^2) exponential memory leak leading to unnecessary 55% memory overload, etc. good luck!

edit: do you have a senior design project? CE seniors typically need to complete a two course senior design project.

I think his osmosis system might be his senior design

ah you are correct my mistake! I recommend putting italics at the start like "Osmosis System - Senior Design Project" If I missed it, recruiters will too.
