Heyy, overall your structure is good. Some things I would note are :

  1. Add some quantifiable metrics, like in your experience for the bullet points add in hw many students you assisted etc. Try to look up google did x with y resulting in z format. I think its called xyz format for resumes

  2. I think some of the dates are not aligned correctly on the right hand side. Make sure formatting is clean and consistent

Alright, I really appreciate it.
What do you think about the contents like to projects and all that. Be transparent idm it.

I think just like proofread with capitalizaton and all that. For projects I think these are pretty decent ones, if you wanted to add 1 more that would be good. I think you should also fix spacing between headings and text. Also the white space on right hand side seems alot to me

#

Also for projects I think you should again add more quantiative metrics

#

How do you think I could fix the white space? Do you think the content in terms of Expereince and projects alone could get me an interview.

#

Again dont need to sugercoat, I need to hear what needs to b heard.

Ok so idrk about getting the interviews . But im trying to look at ur resume as a recruiter, and yk the market is crazy flooded rn, and I feel like you got to beef up your resume abit more prob with more projects. Like its not something easy to explain but I think adding more metrics and fixing formatting will help with that firstly

Nah that was really beneficial. Thank you for your help

It had minimal white space

I think some of your bullet points are way too long to comprehend for a quick review. try to make it max 1 + 1/2 line.
If targeting for tech roles, I advise you to add some language/technology in your bullets.
Fake it till you make it

Valid, that makes a lot of sense. Imma implement more tech/languages into the points and summarize it a little bit more.

#

Do you think the formatting and how it looks is good or does it need more work?

#

Also, I would like to ask about the ATS scan. Because I feel like some of my resumes dont get passed it 😭 . What do ATS scans look for?

#

I think you should put skills between education and experience
I commented previously based on how a recruiter. Not sure about the ATS, since it highly depends on the job description. Try to include as many frameworks/technologies in the resume

#

Instead of online location, you should put remote

#

and try to format it towards the locations and date towards the right side of the page a bit more

Also what are your thoughts on using AI to generate some valid resume points. Can recruiters track that?

#

I often use it to help structure my points

#

Here I have updated a few things, I am still using my resume format. And will soon also use Jake's resume and decide which I might go with. Please critique and lmk if there are any red flags.

I see, that makes sense. I don't got issues w explaining the stuff. It's jus that AI helps better structure my points so I b using it.
