hi!
I'd try to use a more standard/professional template
also i'd reallocate the space at the top and bottom into making the descriptions seem less dense
it's quite formidable to read rn
I think a different template will help signfiicantly with this
Also i believe education typically goes above technical skills, and i'd drop the "candidate"
if you have any projects, i'd definitely add them
if you don't have projects and you still have space after reformating, i'd look into classroom assignments you can market as projects
I also would consider cutting down the amount of bullets per position (just to avoid having large blocks of text)
Hey, thanks for the feedback! How does this look now? I was told that I shouldn't include projects unless they had some actual users and my class work is not swe. I'm still not sure what to cut out though for my latest two positions
I also think that since my projects aren't really unique and don't add too much in terms of showing technical skill differing from my internships (react + crud, react + crud + ml), that there's not much point in putting them in even if I had the space to avoid clutter
I think the design is a lot cleaner!
Some people have a section for like related classes and ECs and college things
I think it might help add a bit more personality (which projects also help with)
Makes sense
I think the amount of text is a bit intimating (typically more sections helps as far as adding more space and make it visually more appealing), but also not sure what to cut either
I'm still not getting any luck with this, bumping so I can get some more suggestions/help with what to cut or add
