recent grad, 400+ applications and didn’t hear back

Under skills, just remove your years with the language. It's unneeded and might lead people looking at it to just make assumptions about your skills. Let your Work Experience and Projects speak for your level of skill.

Docker, Git, and AWS are obviously not frameworks so move them to a new line with the descriptor of "Technologies:". You can also chuck some things in there like IDEs, or Team collaboration tools (Slack, Trello, etc.)

I would also consider condensing your descriptions in the first Work Experience, for sentence length and then maybe pruning one of the bullet points so you can free up some space, because your resume is very dense. It could use a tiny bit of white space for readability.

Switch the position of Location and Date when you list both and bold the Date and Italicize the location. My eye is immediately draw to "Brooklyn, NY," and passes over the dates.

Make sure the horizontal lines are all the same (the top seems to be thin and black, the middle looks thin and gray and the bottom two are a tiny bit thicker)

For the thing about the horizontal line it’s just bc I took a picture and it came out a bit weird
