i would increase font size by a point or two, u have the space for it
not sure how much “first class finish predicted” is mattering since resume is meant to showcase accomplishments that are done already, not things that may or may not happen
not a deal breaker by any means but just some food for thought
“Implemented a content creation feature to populate user information into necessary fields, using HTML, …, resulting in XY% decrease in time to complete onboarding tasks.”
“developed an interactive map…” cool feature but why did u make this? what benefit did creating this have
last bullet in internship is unnecessarily wordy, can be cut down by saying something along the lines of “Built a map template for the open-source library, X, reducing time to manifest map data by AB%.”
make sure u include numbers or “proof” of your claims. Youre claiming great reductions but what are u basing this off of? how do u know there were reductions in the first place? how do u know they were great and big ?
drop IDEa from skills
what experience do u have with AWS ?
what experience do u have with GCP?
what experience do u have with C and C++?
last bullet in last project can also be made more concise by following the same idea from above solutions
I used it for Big Data Analysis with Hadoop and other data analysis tools I can't remember the name off the top of my head
VMs to deploy cloud solutions using docker
mostly from modules in my university, most of my C++ is from making an extensive game
I don't really have any data based on it because the open-source library is not that widely used, I just thought with common sense that the template will allow people to use the template much more easily than writing the code from scratch themselves
I don't really have a % for it but it was to boost the efficiency of the process
sorry for the million ping replies I forgot to turn them off...
I have also gone to a hackathon but I worked solo
I assume references don't really matter? Haven't seen anyone else use them, I also have a letter of recommendation
Also you didn't mention anything about transfering stuff from the old CV so I imagine nothing is required?
Here is the updated version with most of your suggestions, I am not sure what else to fill the gaps with unless some of the questions I already have above will be able to complete the gap remaining.
I increased the font by a point but I couldn't do more as the current thing I am using on overleaf doesn't allow for more, worst case scenario I just try and fix it later.
