Resume: top

We recommend including the following information:

  • Name

    • In English given name should go first, surname should go second.

  • Your phone number

    • It should start with + and your country code (e.g. +7 or +996). While in a lot of countries sign "+" converts to "00" in many other countries in converts to other digit combinations. For example, in the US it's "011".

  • LinkedIn link

  • Github link

  • Programming languages

    • Here only include the languages you would be comfortable interviewing in. In other sections, you can mention other languages you used.

If you are from a different country but have work authorization (for example, a green card in the US or a spousal work authorization) we recommend mentioning that.
