Summer 2025 Internships

[wanton current]

I would love to hear any thoughts on how I can improve my resume. Is it still possible to get an internship or am I too late?

Any advice on how to get my application picked up by recruiters would mean a lot.

[primal echo]

remove the summary line for each exp

cut down bullets to 1 line

Resume needs more breathing room imo, it looks a bit hard to read

I got that advice from a friend as well. I am stuck as to what exactly I should do to have more breathing room. I have now removed the summary lines and can try to shorten the bullet points but is there anything that you can suggest in particular that I can do to achieve that?

[wanton current]

I have made some changes to it. I haven't cut the content in the bullets for now.

Can you please tell me if this is better and what more to do to further improve it?

[grim raft]

Better but as other said u should make it one line. U can make it 2 line max if its noteworthy/important. bullets u have which are two lines seem verbose and not much important/noteworthy

Like first one u said it improved processing time but later adding extra sentence to show more result without number seem verbose to me

Also under ur skill section u have like CI/CD and rest apis under the category that doesnt make sense. Im assuming it is done to pass ats scan

But u gotta know they actually look at resume after they ats scan the resume

Sometimes it also reaches hiring manager beyond just recruiter so if they look at it they probably going to question ur knowledge in these terms

Leading to no interview

Also summer 2025 is too late. Start looking for fall internship and beyond

You can save a couple lines by cleaning up the coursework sections under both your universities. Only keep 2-3 of the most relevant courses or just remove them entirely if u want

I would also remove your gpa to clean up space

Your project titles can also be shorter

I would also switch your position and company name

Position should be the one in bigger font and bolded, with company name below

Could include more metrics in ur personal projects as well, especially with the distributed one

I feel kind of iffy about bolding each tech, id maybe only bold metrics

[wanton current]

wow. that is a lot of advice. I'll work on my resume and come back here.
Thanks a bunch! @frigid wedge and @grim raft

I am not sure about REST APIs but isn't CI/CD a good fit under DevOps?

[grim raft]

Devops are people who build CI/CD. and CI/CD isnt really skill. Its a practice created in software space. If u mention tech for building cicd or tool related to devops, then those are fine

Same goes for api. Its a architecture. U build api and cicd not list them as skills

Ex: openapi is technology that u actually utilize to build api

[wanton current]

from that to this. I am trying to incorporate all the changes that you have been giving me. thank you for your suggestions.

how do you guys feel about this? please feel free to tell me your honest reviews about how this one feels

[frigid wedge]

Some of your bolding is odd imo, i wouldnt bold stuff like recreation and front-end

I also think your bulletpoints under the norton internship are kind of vague

Is 100% compatability with future updates an absolutely certain metric?

I would personally feel iffy about defending it during an interview

[wanton current]

they were using an Objective-C codebase for the ui. I worked on reimplementing the same ui using swiftui. I'll see how I can frame it in a different way

[wanton current]

to address this, I have changed the 'DevOps' title to 'DevOps Practices'

does it make more sense now?

[frigid wedge]

Some of the things you have listed under there aren't entirely devops related

Rest apis, unit/e2e/integration testing, logging are all things a SWE could do instead of a devops person
