Damn ðŸ˜
Idk if should be happy or not with that response
I don't like the font. Looks too different from most resumes I see.
I used it cuz it looked more readable, do you think a recruiter would really care tho?
getting rejected based on font alone is rare
but if the resume looks too non-standard
like too much varying font sizes
or just general "weirdness" which yes I know is subjective
it goes to the trash
not saying its fair
but im saying its how it is
recruiters are not technically smart
and they only have limited time because they have 500 or so resumes they look at
its why they focus on top schools
and top firms
because everyone knows "oh apple, that's a good company"
it's not entirely fair
but it just is what it is
I personally don't like sans serif, but if it's the latest trend and enough people are doing it, then its not a valid reason to reject IMO
gotcha, I think i'll just keep it the same lowk, I don't think its the reason I haven't been getting interviews
i think its just luck atp
I do think there's too much white space
put company, position, dates, and locations all in one line
it'll help get rid of the middle empty zones
and make it look more dense
dense resume is good resume
I feel like your margins are really small which makes it feel a little cramped (unless you cropped the image)
my margins on my resume is 0.5
I guarantee you want small font, small margins, etc
make the resume look dense
thank you complete cs idiot
