so i have informed here that my resume bullet points should changed after reading the resume-review-legacy and i have read it. anything should i exactly change in this new resume, and also i have informed that i should add new projects should i do the new projects also with react express mongodb or should i use new technologies because am aiming for full stack

#

how many jobs have applied to?

#

if lets say out of 50 or 100 no replies for interview then yes change would be needed'

#

also some grammar errors

#

for technology it is Express.js and MongoDB etc

#

security is suppose to be lowercase

#

and for project bullet points try to follow thishttps://www.freecodecamp.org/news/writing-a-killer-software-engineering-resume-b11c91ef699d/ it has lots fo resources on good resume examples and how to tailor your resume and using actions words and meaningful bullet points

#

Also include work experience to showcase soft skills even if it irrelevant for now until get work experience related

projects should tailor towards the job. apply with updated resume you just did. If no success then can update resume.

Fill them up with your best school projects/assignments and you can replace them as you build new projects

#

Also most internships require you to still be studying

#

So most will automatically deny you because your graduated

#

Why does it say May 2021?

vast roost
#

it all sample just the projects and technical skills are real ssorry for confusing

restive night
#

Interesting

#

Just put your boring projects on there and let it motivate you to get better projects

#

Nobody will take you serious with half a page of a resume, sorry to say

restive night
#

Yeah

#

man the projects we get here lol its elementary school project outside

#

To me it looks like you have 2 options

  1. Put your boring projects on your resume and apply to your internships, and create better projects to slowly phase out the old ones over time

  2. Stop the idea of applying, and just focus on project creation and come back in a month or so and show us what you got then

I Know i asked u alot but can i use same stacks for next project or new one and is one good project enough?

restive night
#

Yeah

#

But genuinely would be nice to spread out your knowledge

#

but it really is up to you

#

If you want to do straight Django projects, nobody is going to stop you
