Hard requirement is 8 years of software engineering and the daily tasks include maintaining 47 different Excel sheets because the CPO likes the format.

8 years of experience programming in a language that didn't exist until two years ago.

Easy just work 160 hours a week. That leaves time for a nice 8 hour night of sleep, just like the doctor recommends.

Anybody got some tips for lying on your resume? I'm not a very good liar

[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago

@oshitwaddup @yogthos can't find the source anymore but I saw a video that basically said "the closing of twitter was so chaotic you can claim whatever you want, they can't check whether you are lying"

So if you are already on board with lying your resume... That? Former "senior backend engineer 5years"?

Obviously don't put stuff they can just check, like claiming skills they can just test you for.

Also maybe not lead positions those people might be too famous.
