Ask HN: Any recommendations for help with (engineering) career presentation?

2•tfederman•8mo ago
I'm in a long career break to work on my own stuff because my financial situation allows it, but I've found one job I'd like to apply for. My LinkedIn profile is extremely neglected and I've never put any effort into that sort of presentation, self promotion, or online presence in general.

I'd like to fix that, I want to pay for someone to fix (or help fix) up my profile, touch up my resume, and help write a bio and generic cover letter about my specific strengths and situation.

There's a million people and services that do this but are there any that are focused on software engineering and really solid on understanding that specific market?

Any recommendations? I'm not looking for a low effort/AI solution.

(email in bio)

Why don't you reach out to the person who's hiring, tell them your situation, and ask for an informal chat? Maybe even offer to work for free / on a freelance basis for a few months? Or build something that's relevant to them, then show them?

Better than writing up a generic bio/cover letter and going through their ATS.

I wouldn't bother too much with LinkedIn, just put the tech keywords and you're set.
