this was it before

#

@weary kite @thick hinge hey lol I was told either of you two are good people to ask for resume advice

#

it is one page

#

never heard that one before that's interesting

#

duly noted

#

ill give it a shot

#

facts, thank you

#

What r ur thoughts on the actual changes to the skills section content

thick hinge
#

change “enabled thousands” to a real number in first experience

thick hinge
#

try to format your projects in a way where you can include the programming languages and the project link

thick hinge
#

i’ll give you an example you can go ahead and copy it

stone lake
#

is that latex? if so would u mind showing me how its written lol

thick hinge
#

it is latex, it’s simple literally just put your project link and date together

#

and put project name and technologies together

stone lake
#

ah ya I figured it out

#

do u think the little link logo is necessary

#

to add to mine

#

icon* whatever you'd call it

thick hinge
#

yes do it

#

also each bullet point needs to define how your task helped the company, i’ll list each bullet that doesn’t necessarily do that

#

some bullets you kinda just described what you did, but you didn’t tie to back to the company

stone lake
#

kk

thick hinge
#

1,

#

that’s all

#

then your bullets are really generic, think about it like this, if I can copy and post your bullets to another company, it’s NOT specific enough

#

there’s an easy fix, start using names and products

#

instead of saying enhanced application say enhanced (xxx) application

stone lake
#

oh ok I had that before but felt no one would really care to know the specific name

stone lake
thick hinge
#

yes bullet 1 from the top

stone lake
thick hinge
#

it doesnt have a mission or end goal it’s just a description

stone lake
#

I see

thick hinge
#

what is the benefit of that

#

“in production to (do what)”

stone lake
#

I see

thick hinge
#

don’t make it 3 lines, reform and refactor

#

gg bro

stone lake
#

ya ill shrink it down

#

do you mind if I @ you again once I make the changes

thick hinge
#

please

stone lake
#

appreciate it

stoic nest
stone lake
#

and then just use \faExternalLink

stoic nest
#

oh ok thanks

#

didnt know u could use font awesome

stone lake
#

also the skills section, does it still need any changes? went from this:

#

to what it is now

#

@thick hinge

thick hinge
#

Yes absolutely add more technologies to the projects, I thought of this before you even said it

#

the skills section is perfect

#

your resume is perfect now, especially the experience do you see how it brought it to life

#

keep the blue, the color is nice, all black and white resume is kind of dull, and the blue distinguishes the links

#

also complete Aside, make sure you use a REAL image for your linkedin

#

ur too handsome to Ai generate that shit bro

stone lake
#

ahaha I needed a placeholder, my old picture was super out of date and I had no1 to take a picture for me in nyc this summer, new pic is alr in the works

#

thx so much for ur help
