Applying for Fall 2023 internships (Roast my resume)

[arctic cedar]

Find a way to fill all the whitespace at the bottom

[shut coral]

• put gpa on its own line
• (imo, this is subjective so take it or leave it) separate professional experience from extracurricular/volunteer positions
• try to do and add another project

[arctic cedar]

why GPA on own line?

ATS?

[shut coral]

yeah that and itll fill up the whitespace a bit @arctic cedar

thats a small point though it works either way

[nova zephyr]

isnt it better to compact eveyrthing as much as possible or am I missing some other reasoning for it

I am working on one or two peojects currently which I'll get added to fill that white space

[nova zephyr]

I definitely agree but I dont currently have professional experience such as internships, etc

so it feels kinda awkward listing everything as volunteer/club exp

[nova zephyr]

also will be attending a hackathon tmrw as well which Im super stoked abt

[arctic cedar]

which one?

[nova zephyr]

DragonHacks in drexel

don't compact things if it adds whitespace

theres no benefit to that

you compact things if you need to in order to fit more, but if you dont have more to fit then no point

I remember someone telling me not to put C/C++, I didn't agree with it at the time, but now I do. Put them separately.

they're very different

yeah, at least 1-2 more projects, also unindent the bullet points under each experience? so you can fit more lines in

someone told me the bullet point advice too and I agree with it.

[shut coral]

yeah if you put C/C++ that indicates that you don't actually have a good grasp of either
