#Roast my resume !

Great start! one quick thing is I highly recommend removing "advanced", "intermediate" beside the skills, I think it serves almost no purpose whatsoever other than to say that some of your skills are stronger than others, which is a given for everyone with any skill. if you really want to, if you have exceptional/standout experience in a technology then you can put your years of experience in that skill instead, as that provides some objective information that your recruiter can actually use
My biggest piece of feedback is that in your experience, your internship looks kind of weak right now due to a lack of highlighting tangible impact.
Tell me about your internship. What did you accomplish in your time there? It sounds like you were mostly doing debugging and testing but I want to know more details like were you fixing bug reports from customers? were they tickets from teammates and you helped reduce tech debt? did you fix a really annoying bug that has been around for a long time?
You're actually right My internship wasn't something I'd call impactful or technically relevant, My tasks were simply getting tickets from the project manager about flaws and bugs observed by the customer usually simple and medium bugs (That I don't even remember now) that might require one day of work or two for reading code, debugging, tracking down the data flow to check were the developers made error. But unfortunately, there wasn't much of trust when it comes to handing feat tickets or high severity bugs to the interns. My experience wasn't great; however I learned how the workflow of development happens from planning the sprint to merging new feats to the prod and observing how the team manages itself etc...
And between you and me I really found hard time to describe that experience in my resume in a meaningful way, I coz I don't really think that I technically learned much.
