@surreal ibex From successful resumes I've seen, put skills at the bottom. Also it should be written as JavaScript and TypeScript.

The bullets for Cornell Blockchain will make 0 sense to a recruiter. Hell, it makes 0 sense to me lol. You need to rework it to sound more friendly (unless you're going for specifically blockchain roles). Many of your other bullet are also a bit wordy.

You should avoid using words like "remarkable" to intensify your metrics.

# surreal ibex Are there any good things to do this summer that can boost my resume?

I think you’re on the right track with your projects. Recruiters like seeing apps that have users.

I’m honestly not sure why you’re getting rejected left and right. You got school clout and one great project (not saying the other two aren’t great). Have you only been applying to top companies? Have you attended any recruiting events at your school?

There are an endless amount of projects you can do. Not to be cheesy, but you’re only limited by your own creativity. I’m constantly thinking about stuff I can build. If you want to PM we, we can brainstorm projects for you for summer

How’s your LC skills?
