Hey, I've been having some issues detailing my resume; I have a lot of different jobs I've held at the same time, some of these working weekends, some just overtime in the middle of the week; and a LOT of experience during my college years, not to mention the contract move from one company to another in that first job.

I don't think just lying is the answer here, but I'm getting the feeling that recruiters think I live this anime protag life in another world.
Otherwise, general, what the heck do I do for a good resume? This is also cutting out a LOT of detail from positions. My CV is 3 pages long at the moment and a bit better formatted than just this wall of text. My CV also does not include personal projects (nor do I really have any because I spend my time working, not coding for fun)

just FYI if y didnt know, you dont need to say exactly what day you started and ended ur jobs and stuff, looks a bit silly IMO haha

#

u have over 5 YOE so its fine to have like a 2 page resume

#

so its easier to read and not just a paragraph of keywords

Actually I got it down to 2 pages with single space between paragraphs. Not sure how much I like it but eh

worldly cradle
#

skills section takes way too much space

#

for your exp only put the most important/big stuff

#

like with the most impact

#

reduce the padding up top and at the bottom

#

heres my changed skills section, just with the formatting alone

#

I could reduce this further, but then we kinda go back to the block of text issue

restive stream
#

Maybe you can bump the cross team collaboration stuff to the top rather than the feature work

#

For the demoing work dotpoint I don't feel that that one is super strong
