Dec 2025 MS CE grad looking for New Grad DV / Embedded / Firmware roles in USA

Hi everyone,

I don’t usually post like this, but I’m honestly in a tough situation and trying my best to find a new grad opportunity in the U.S.

I graduated in Dec 2025 with an MS in Computer Engineering from a public university in the Bay Area, with a 3.83 GPA. My main focus was computer architecture, embedded systems, microprocessor design, advanced computer design, and hardware/software integration.

I’m looking for new grad / entry-level roles in Design Verification, Validation, Embedded Software, Firmware, Systems/Platform Software, or SoC-related roles.

My skills include C, C++, Python, embedded C, Verilog/SystemVerilog basics, FPGA/Vivado, Linux debugging, scripting, memory-mapped register validation, and hardware/software debugging.

I have 6 months of software engineering internship experience and also worked as a TA/Instructional Student Assistant for multiple computer engineering courses, where I helped students with labs, debugging, and grading.

I did get good interview opportunities with companies like Amazon Annapurna, NVIDIA, ARM, and Qualcomm, but due to headcount/timing/final-round outcomes, nothing converted. I’m still preparing seriously and I’m interview-ready. I can do Blind 75 / LeetCode 150-style coding interviews and can interview remote or onsite.

I’m authorized to work in the U.S. and open to relocate.

If anyone knows any recruiter, hiring manager, referral, or opening for DV / validation / embedded / firmware / systems roles, please let me know. I would genuinely be grateful for any help.

Resume available on request. Thank you for reading.

Civil/Structural Engineering Jobs with travel

I am a new PE (FL) with 5 years of experience in structural engineering. I have experience in light commercial/residential and heavy industrial plants. I am having a hard time finding roles that fit 20% travel in the structural realm. I figured I would be as specific as possible but obviously the job would not have to check all my boxes.

I am interested in a new structural engineering job with travel opportunities. I guess the dream travel scenario would be once or twice a month for a few days each. I am flexible to 2 weeks every couple months as well if international.

I am still quite new in my career and am open to many different categories. I have interest in seawalls, docks, maritime & port work but do not have experience in ship design. I have read about roles as "Client" engineers where it is more management. I also enjoy teaching and am interested in scuba certification.

Regarding work/life balance, I am pretty flexible dependent on the travel. If I am traveling 2 weeks every couple of months, I would prefer the home schedule to be flexible (40-45hrs).

TLDR: Young engineer looking for advice on how to locate travel jobs that don't require month/s long residencies on a jobsite.

I Tried ChatGPT to Fix My Resume. Here’s Why It Missed the Point.

Comparing https://resume.zoevera.com against https://chatgpt.com

And what a purpose-built ATS checker caught that GPT-4 didn’t.

Let me be upfront: I use ChatGPT for everything. Code reviews, draft emails, explaining stack traces at 2am. It’s genuinely useful. So when I needed to tailor my resume for a senior backend role, my first instinct was to open a chat window.

That was three weeks ago. Here’s what I learned.

What ChatGPT actually does well

Ask ChatGPT to “improve my resume” and it will:

  • Clean up passive voice (“responsible for” → “led”)
  • Suggest stronger action verbs
  • Add structure and formatting consistency
  • Rewrite vague bullets into something that sounds more impressive

For general writing quality, it’s genuinely good. If your resume reads like it was written by someone who hasn’t slept in 48 hours, ChatGPT will fix that.

What ChatGPT fundamentally cannot do

Here’s the problem: ChatGPT doesn’t know what job you’re applying for.

You can paste the job description into the prompt, sure. But there’s no mechanism for it to:

  1. Score your resume against that specific JD — it has no concept of a match percentage
  2. Identify which keywords are present vs. missing — it will suggest improvements but won’t systematically audit keyword coverage
  3. Know how Applicant Tracking Systems parse text — it will rewrite content without knowing whether an ATS will ever see it

ATS filters work on keyword frequency and placement. A resume that reads beautifully to a human can score 40% on an ATS if the right terms aren’t in the right sections. ChatGPT optimizes for human readers. ATS systems are not human readers.

I ran a test. Same resume, same job description (Backend Engineer, Node.js/AWS stack). I gave ChatGPT the full JD and asked it to optimize my resume for ATS.

The output was well-written. It added “microservices” and “REST APIs” in a few places. But it missed:

  • “AWS Lambda” — mentioned 4 times in the JD, absent from my resume after the rewrite
  • “CI/CD pipeline” — appeared in the required skills section, never added
  • The Projects section — ChatGPT rewrote my experience bullets but left the Projects section untouched, which is where most of my relevant backend work lived

When I ran the same resume through resume.zoevera.com, it flagged all three gaps explicitly, with section-level attribution. The ATS match score went from 54% to 81% after applying the suggested changes.

The core difference: diagnostic vs. generative

ChatGPT is a generative tool. It produces new text. It’s very good at that.

An ATS checker is a diagnostic tool first. It measures the gap between your resume and a specific job description, then tells you exactly what’s missing. The rewrite comes second — and it’s grounded in what was actually identified as absent, not what the model thinks sounds better.

This distinction matters because:

ChatGPT hallucinates improvements. It will add metrics you never achieved (“improved system performance by 35%”), use terminology that
sounds right but wasn’t in the JD, and rewrite bullets that didn’t need rewriting while leaving critical gaps untouched. Every line needsfact-checking.

A purpose-built tool works from the actual gap. The keywords it adds are the ones the JD asked for. The sections it flags are the ones the ATS will score. The output is closer to submission-ready.

A practical workflow

These tools aren’t mutually exclusive. The best result I got came from using both in sequence:

  1. ATS checker first: identify the keyword gaps and get a scored rewrite that closes them
  2. ChatGPT second: use it to polish tone, tighten sentences, and clean up anything that sounds mechanical

The ATS checker handles precision. ChatGPT handles prose quality. Neither does both well alone.

The cost argument

ChatGPT Plus is $20/month. If you’re actively job searching, that’s a fixed overhead whether you use it or not.

Most people search for jobs in windows — a few weeks of active applications, then nothing for months. A per-session model makes more
sense: pay when you need it, nothing when you don’t. ZoeVera’s pricing works that way — free analysis, one-time payment for the full
rewrite, no subscription.

For a developer audience specifically: if you’re applying to 10–15 roles over two weeks, you’re not optimizing resumes 365 days a year. The math on a monthly subscription doesn’t work.

What I’d actually recommend

  • If you just need better writing: ChatGPT is fine and you already have it
  • If you’re applying to roles where ATS filtering is real (any company using Workday, Greenhouse, Lever, iCIMS): use a dedicated ATS checker first, then polish with ChatGPT
  • If you’re a developer and haven’t thought about this: your resume probably uses technical jargon that means something to you and nothing to an ATS keyword parser. “Built scalable backend” is not the same as “developed microservices architecture using Node.js and AWS ambda” — even if the underlying work is identical

The ATS doesn’t know what you meant. It only knows what you wrote.

Tested against a real Backend Engineer job description. Tools used: ChatGPT GPT-4o, https://resume.zoevera.com. June 2026.

Electrical Engineering student looking for resume/co-op advice

Hi everyone,
I’m currently a pre-junior Electrical Engineering student at Drexel University. I was supposed to be on co-op during the Spring/Summer term, but I wasn’t able to secure a position, so I had to defer my first co-op to my senior year.

I’m trying to use this time to improve my resume, skills, and projects, but I’m honestly confused about what companies actually expect to see from an Electrical Engineering student applying for co-ops or internships.

For people who have worked as electrical engineers, hired EE students, or completed EE co-ops/internships:

What do companies usually look for on an EE student’s resume?
Should I focus more on projects, technical skills, research, certifications, clubs, or work experience?

What kind of projects would make my resume stronger?

Also, if anyone has advice on how to stand out after not getting a co-op the first time, I would really appreciate it.

Any honest advice would help. Thank you.
