Had to install Arch recently because it would help pad word count. Normally I wouldn’t pick it because it takes so long to install for an experience that doesn’t feel different enough to warrant that time. But I had to for uni so I thought people here might appreciate my attempt at making a pretty desktop. If anyone has tips with Gnome on here feel free to fire away aswell.
We have a word limit and the assignment I’m currently doing assumed you can get a work placement. Which I can’t because no local companies are taking this year (The place I love has maybe 6 tech companies if you are generous). So I’m having to find other ways to display "A knowledge of best practices for tech in a workplace.
I didn’t know Arch linux is a good skill to display. It’s listed in a small portion of my resume but nothing huge.
It’s not Arch itself that’s the skill. It’s how it’s configured and used for specific purposes that counts to the marks.
I definitely think that putting Arch or any Linux distro for that matter shows technical know-how and troubleshooting skills. Being familiar in bash and shell is a big bonus in a lot of roles as well.
