- Avoid using the term utilized
- Describe your projects/experiences in the following manner:
"X is for “accomplished what?”, Y is for “measured by”, and Z if for “by doing what?”, so put in Google’s words, "Accomplished [X] as measured by [Y], by doing [Z].
Let’s have a look at an example:
“Reduced costs by 10% by leading a major cost rationalization program”."
3. Don't include dates for your projects
4. Capitalize technologies/languages
5. One bullet point at least should describe what the project actually is, I am not sure what "Wizard Catalog" is
6. Bolden only technologies/frameworks and metrics
7. Try to fit each bullet points completely in 1 line or completely in 2 lines (small thing)
8. Consider what team you'd like to work in and slowly work towards a resume that targets this sort of team. 1/2 C++ and 1/2 web Projects is an issue I had last year and got very few responses.
No offense but there are quite a few more things that I currently do not have time to go over but hopefully these criticisms should keep u busy. Don't be afraid to use chatgpt to help with project ideas or to make your resume a bit more grammatically correct/consistent. DM me if you'd like when you make these changes
Use current internship postings (In Fullstack, C++, W/E) to help guide you towards a better resume

here is a sample of one of my projects. Not perfect either but imho is OKAY aside from the excessive bolding of basic data structures
