What Kind of Projects Really Make a Resume Stand Out?

[Admin]

We all know recruiters love projects, but what really makes them say “wow”?

This thread is for sharing your project ideas, portfolios, and tips to make your work shine.

Let’s discuss:

• What’s one project that got you noticed or shortlisted?
• Do recruiters care more about design, scalability, or innovation?
• How big should a “portfolio project” be — 1 week or 1 month build?
• Have you ever contributed to open source or team projects?

Bonus: Drop your GitHub, portfolio, or project demo links — let others get inspired!
