## How to write your Netflix Software Engineer resume

### 1. Keep it to one page

Recruiters skim resumes in seconds. Keep your strongest material in view by trimming older or less relevant entries before shrinking the font or margins. Eighty-seven percent of the 55 resumes we read in full are one page.

### 2. Lead with education while you are in school

Put your school, degree, and graduation date at the top while you are a student. Once internships say more about you than coursework, move experience above education. Eighty-seven percent of the 45 resumes whose sections we could read put education before experience.

### 3. Count internships, research, and projects as experience

Internships, co-ops, research, and teaching-assistant roles all count as experience. If you do not have those yet, use a projects section to describe what you built, the tools you used, and the result. Sixty-five percent of the 55 resumes we read in full list at least one internship or co-op; a typical resume lists three roles, and 82% have a projects section.

### 4. Put a number in your bullet points

Open each bullet with what you did and close with the result. Numbers such as users, revenue, latency, accuracy, or hours saved make results concrete and easy to skim. A typical resume has 18 bullet points, and 50% carry a figure.

### 5. List your GPA if it helps you

Include your GPA if it is near or above the collection's average; otherwise let coursework and projects carry the education section. Fifteen percent of the 55 resumes list a GPA on a 4.0 scale, and those GPAs average 3.66.

### 6. Name specific skills and tools

List the languages, frameworks, and tools you have actually used. Group them by type and use the terminology in the job description. Skip soft skills; your bullet points demonstrate those. The most-listed skills are node.js (51%), React.js (49%), JSON (36%), C++ Programming (25%), and Ionic Framework (24%). A typical resume lists 24 skills.
