3 months of applying for GCP Cloud Engineer roles with no luck. Are my skills on par with the market? Am I missing something, What am i doing wrong?
Hey everyone,
I am actively targeting Cloud Engineer and infrastructure roles within the Google Cloud ecosystem. I would highly appreciate it if senior GCP Architects, DevOps Engineers, and hiring managers in this sub could tear apart my resume and LinkedIn profile.
I am trying to enter into this space and want to ensure my technical projects read like a real engineer's work, not just a list of keywords.
My Core Target: Cloud Engineer / Platform Engineer (GCP-focused)
My Target Stack: GCP (GKE, Compute Engine, IAM, Cloud Build), Terraform, Docker, CI/CD pipelines.
Links to my profiles:
- LinkedIn : PM me for my LinkedIn link if you are a recruiter/hiring manager.
Specific questions I have:
- Do my project bullet points demonstrate actual impact, or do they just look like a shopping list of GCP services?
- Is my Infrastructure as Code (Terraform) experience coming across clearly?
- For anyone who hires GCP engineers: What is the biggest red flag or weak point that would make you skip my resume?
- Is my profile competitive in today's market, or am I missing critical skills?
Please be as brutal and honest as possible. I want to fix this before I blast out more applications.
Thanks in advance for the help!
