How to stand out

First, cover the basics the ads ask for most (see the requirements above: python (57%), c++ (43%), linux (23%), cad (11%)). Then look at what separates higher-paid ads:

Too few ads publish a pay range to compare, so we do not rank items by pay.

We describe only what the ads state. We do not know how recruiters rank candidates.
