FAQ

Common questions about this CV

Do I still need Objective-C in 2025?

For greenfield work, barely. But if you join a company with a codebase older than five years, knowing enough Obj-C to debug it will save you headaches.

Should I show pet projects or only commercial work?

Commercial wins by default, but a polished pet project on the App Store can carry the weight of half a year of work for a junior. Just make sure it's alive, not abandoned.

Do I really need a Mac to work as an iOS developer?

Yes, no way around it. Xcode only runs on macOS, so even a base-model Mac is non-negotiable.

How many bullets per job should I write?

Aim for 4-6 on your most recent role and 2-3 on older ones. Fewer bullets with real numbers beat a wall of vague duties every time.

How do I list NDA apps?

Describe the product category, the audience, and your specific contribution without naming the company or showing screenshots. Recruiters see this format constantly and treat it as normal.
