I’ve reviewed over 10,000 resumes hiring at startups and large companies.
Recently I’ve partnered with some recruiters at MANGA+ companies and started
PineappleResume [https://pineappleresume.com/], a free interview guide & paid
resume review service - But I’m doing it on Lemmy for free! How to get a Free
Review: * Share a link to your resume below (info redacted or not) * If there
aren’t too many posts, I’ll get to it and give a review Note if you’re not
targeting a general Software Development position, include what role you’re
going after and optionally the JD.
Use a format that is more compressed, you have so much white-space
Change Skills categories - You use Git for Backend and Frontend, so the categories have overlap and don’t make much sense. Most people use Languages/Frameworks/Tools, do some variation of that
Good to see education at the bottom, although I’m not sure what Non-Graduate means (it sounds like you dropped out? If you didn’t drop out, definitely change the wording)
Bulletpoints:
None of recent bulletpoints have “proof” that you did a good job. You kind of talk about a “result” by saying “things got better” or “things got faster”, but you don’t prove it. Your old bulletpoints (ie US Air Force) on the other hand are great
Add metrics - You have very few numbers in your bulletpoints. Numbers are the best way to show impact
Your bulletpoint formatting changed half-way through - Before you were putting the tech stack below each point, afterwards you stopped. Be consistent
i.e. change “Led architecture design change, implemented server-driven UI framework for dynamically
rendering pages, reducing development time for new content”
To “Led architecture design change, implemented server-driven UI [with FrameworkName], reducing [page load by 50ms/page size by 80%]”
i.e. “Facilitated agile engineering team improvement, led sessions designed to promote continued
growth by creating iterative goals focused on agile engineering fluences, enhancing team’s
capability to deliver value.”
To “Facilitated agile engineering team improvement, led 12 sessions of 8 engineers to promote continued
growth by creating iterative goals focused on agile engineering fluences, enhancing team’s
capability to deliver value.”
i.e. “Developed network wide security log centralization and archiving solution, ensuring log integrity for 200 GB of logs a day” - This is very good
But still change to “Developed network wide security log centralization and archiving solution [with XYZ], ensuring log integrity for 200 GB of logs a day”
i.e. “Administrator responsible for maintaining $2.7M Joint Worldwide Intelligence Communication
Network node supporting 24/7/365 unmanned aerial vehicle operation, and Nellis Air Force
base exercises” - This is great, the $2.7M shows great ownership, but you’re missing a bullet at the start (formatting)
