I am so not proud of my resume but am also unsure how to make it better! Any suggestion is highly appreciated.

"Provisioned" might be a better word than "got together"

#

Also "built the world's first ever video game" had me confused ๐Ÿคฃ

violet stirrup
#

Yea, that part wasnt sitting right to me either! ๐Ÿ˜‚

#

I guess i'll switch "Built" to "Recreated" to send out a clearer idea

#

Get the objective off of there

#

Add solid impact numbers to project

#

Roughly 60% should have

#

Also apply ad soph (and change on LinkedIn etc)

#

Otherwise might get auto rejected

#

Unless you're sure ur graduating in 4 yrs

#

Not sure if you blacked it out but if you don't have it add your linkedin and github

#

Date for the school is italicized and rest arent

#

Not sure if underlining makes a difference with ats

#

Other than that looks good

#

I'm also first year soph, tbh ats might be rejecting bc some places list on desired qualifications they want junior or senior

#

And practice leetcode before taking any oas you get, you need perfects

#

I will be graduating in 2026 but i have put 2025 everywhere

#

Thanks for the advise, I'll revise my resume accordingly

#

At the same time you don't want to hide stuff

#

If they interview and find you're a 1st year they might reject

#

But idk ig first you have to make it past ats

violet stirrup
#

Hmm true
Ig its better if i remove the start date and maybe bring down the graduation date to 2024?

Dawg ur a freshman don't put down 2024 tf ๐Ÿ’€

#

Leave grad as 2025 and try not to mention soph and especially don't say "second year", but if you have to then say soph

nocturne kelp
#

Wait why not just say that we're freshman graduating in 2025
I thought the whole point of putting an earlier grad date is that it's technically possible so it's not lying

mild yoke
#

If you put freshman in applications forms, you might get auto rejected

#

If you say you're a first year soph you're not really lying, a soph is defined to be 3rd to last year just as it is to be second year

#

Which makes it grey area

violet stirrup
#

hmm that makes sense

#

#

Why not April

#

Also how do you know you're GPA if this is your first year of university

mild yoke
#

Need 2022-2025 to be transparent

#
