Thank You!

experience should be above projects

#

stop bolding random stuff like "victory", "company" and "directors"

i put the projects first because in terms of experience they are not any real internship experiences, it just comprises of a hackathon win and couple of clubs that i joined in my undergrad. & since i dont have any internship exp, thus i thought that putting projects first would make more sense. should i still put it above projects?

i did bold stuff that i thought might sound good 😅, so what should i bold in my resume, or should i remove all the bolds all together.

thank you for giving me feedback

ngl 90% of this resume sounds either fabricated or chatGPT

#

all the professional experience isn’t actual experience and the publications don’t have journals and the work described doesn’t even sound like it would be publishable

#

so, what do you suggest how should i make it less worse 😅

#

well for one, put actual work experience like internships in the professional experience section, not clubs or whatever else you have there now

#

and the publications, are they real or fake, there’s not even a journal there. IEEE isn’t a journal or a venue it’s an organization

#

if they’re fake just remove them

Hackathons are usually part of projects. They actually make some of the best projects.

Try and make the other two professional experiences sound more like a job (even if it’s not) and specify engineering related things you did in that job.

Finally try and get referrals before applying in this market. Consistent messaging on LinkedIn or get a friend to refer you

Ok Sure I'll do that!
