Should lead with education before skills, imo recruiters trust a college name more than skills you claim to have

remove the quarters you got Dean’s list- since it shows you didn’t get deans list the other quarters 😭

Associates is fine, but if you have experience in a club or workplace I think that adds more value (something like freelance website work, tech support, tutor, etc.) as UW Bothell CS already overshadows n AS in CS

try leading with metrics as early in the bullets as possible, and ordering bullets with the best match to where you’re applying.

As an example I would change last bullet of VaxTranslate to start with “improved translation accuracy by 90% through integration of RESTful APIs…” and move it to be the 2nd bullet for backend/Full stack SWE roles.

You def can do this for many other bullets you have!

I see integrated for a bullet and integrate for another. Make sure to keep consistent tense between bullets of the same experience

consider using AI to put into Jake’s resume template in latex, and also consider cutting off soft skills (unless you’re looking for less technical roles) and trimming technical skills.

Overall I can tell that this resume has gone through a few iterations, and honestly experience itself matters more than how it’s presented. If you could get any kind of experience with high responsibility whether startup work, research, or freelance, you’ll be set.

For getting interviews I highly recommend cold emailing startups, attending all campus/career events (can find on Handshake), and delaying your graduation if possible it’s okay to go over a few credits.

Keep your head held high and know that it’s never too late for anything! Best of luck!

need consistency in your dates, once you spelt out march others are abreviated

#

also you skills section takes up too much space imo and i would also remove the hyper link for uw student marketplace

#

also the education has the same dating inconsistency
