Roast CV for 2024 Summer Intern

[tiny oak]

You should remove your high school and leadership if you can't make space for 1 page

[hidden surge]

he could fit everything if he was smart

[tiny oak]

how so?

you can also decrease spacing

[white abyss]

Yeah I’ve just done that, and simplified down to 2 projects. Will also try and be less wordy with the descriptions

[tiny oak]

I think your projects are really solid, i don't think you should remove them

[white abyss]

Hmm would it be worth removing the miscellaneous section then 🤔

[tiny oak]

You can remove interests

Your skills section is important

Try decreasing spacing first and see what fits

[white abyss]

ok this is what i have rn

i shortened it to 1 page

🤔

[tiny oak]

looks good, you have a lot of whitespace, i still think you can fit all 4 of your projects

your bullet points for your past internship could be stronger

[white abyss]

I’ll see what I can about the formatting and white space 🥲🥲

[tiny oak]

are you editing on overleaf?

[white abyss]

Yeah, I’m using the pinned format

[tiny oak]

there is a way to change whitespace and spacing

[white abyss]

Do you have any suggestions on how I could approach that?

[tiny oak]

try using the xyz format

[white abyss]

also would relevant modules be helpful or can that be removable

[tiny oak]

you should keep it

did you not take DSA? you should have that as well

[white abyss]

thats a part of our discrete maths course but ill list it as smth separate so that its clearer

the bullet points im struggling with for the X by Y by Z formula are
"Led user-facing stacks and products (landing page, developer dashboard, graph API, docs, some product)"
and
"Led and responsible for API libraries (python, JS, Java wrapper)"

cuz I did a lot of things for these including bug fixing + pushing out features + maintaining etc.

[hidden surge]

decrease spacing, decrease font, decrease words!

make it 1 page
