I have applied for ML Engineer position more than 20 companies in UK, US. I got interviewed for 2 companies and hired by none. I also tried to apply for GAAFA but no response.
Do people abroad value resumes including the online stuff that you do like projects, websites?
I can see people who have not done any big work in previous experience got landed in top jobs. They have other experience like a blog and LinkedIn followers.
I have been involved in three strong projects during my time in company and all are in latest domains. But I don't have the blogs and personal website. Just the core work done in the company.
Is this a big drawback when applying to companies abroad?
