looking for summer '24. plz help me fix my resume

Put your whole Relevant Coursework section on one line in the Education section, under your degree:
"Relevant Coursework: Algorithm Design & Analysis, Computer Architecture"

#

& try to fill up the whole page of your resume, if you can – looks a little sparse. Do you have non-CS work experience (even if it's like barista at starbucks or smthn)? Extracurriculars?

#

Tbh it's just a crappy market rn and folks without experience are going to have a bad time regardless – but your bullet points are well worded and this is a well structured resume

#

genuinely: if you were heavily involved in the robotics club that you made a webpage for, i'd make a new "experience" section and include the robotics club web design (with a souped up title), compeititive programming, and the restaurant position, and then have your "projects" section underneath it

#

your projects are awesome and show mastery of various tech stacks, but prior experience - any sort of experience - is a very good thing to have on your resume bc it shows you are capable of working a job and interacting with other people normally on the job LOL

#

and would also get rid of the whitespace on your current resume, which is nice.

#

ohhh ok i thought it was from college lol

#

yeah maybe not then

#

(although- if you word it right, it probably won't matter that it was from HS, especially considering you only graduated a year and change ago. I'm a junior and I've had a job from HS on my resume for the past 3 yrs and gotten multiple internships with it lolol)

#

(also: obligatory 'i am just a random junior who may or may not know what i'm talking about; please take all of this with a grain of salt')
