So I just found out that I’m back on the job market at the end of the month. The startup I was working for is “not able to find their niche in the market” so here I am. I’ve been all over the interwebs with my resume, trying to get it in good shape and mostly just been using AI tools. They produce some good results if you really review everything closely and “humanize” it yourself, but will produce awful results if overused or not hand-held.
Anyway - I got a real “human”(?) review for free from techieCV and it (they?) gave me some good feedback and I was able to make changes albeit pretty basic stuff… They charge $195 for just the basic professional rewrite so I figured I’d spend some time and do it myself.
I’d love it if anyone could take a look and let me know what I’ve done right/wrong. Let me know if the catbox.moe link is correct, tbh i am new here idk what im supposed to use to link files lol
Overall it’s reasonably solid. Much nicer than most of the 250+ resumes I’ve looked at in the past couple weeks. I’d consider dropping down to a single page, you can trim any experience over 10 years (your linked in will provide that level of history).
Good work trying to show impact. I’d drop the tech skills section and instead try to work all those terms into our experience, since that also gives the context about how fresh it is. Consider adding github link if you have anything to show.
Make sure it parses cleanly into an ATS. You can use jobscan for that, or just find an application form that let’s you upload a pdf to autofill their fields. It’s gross, but every bit helps.
It’s a rough market right now, good luck!
