laid off a few months ago and I've been searching for another senior software engineer role in the US for far too long and have gotten to the point where I'm unironically considering applying to places with a resume that is just a few bold sentences about my aptitude as an engineer.

Not because I think it'll work, but because you just start grasping at straws when a decade of development isn't enough to get past ATS and your resume looks like everyone else's.

What have I got to lose? I only even get denials 40% of the time anyways, the other 60% they don't bother responding at all.
