Will you hire me? Whats your impression on my resume?
Hey folks, In between my serious job hunts,not getting any calls. I seriously wanted to get my resume reviewed. Plz have a look into my resume and pour your honest comments Open for roasting! Thanks
Summary looks like chatgpt generated, I would not look further, you gotta make your skills shine on top, I would keep skills, experience and then education at last. Keep the summary succinct and sweet, make it actually look like you are passionate about something.
I started working on IBM’s ui design system, learnt so much and got confident about design systems, my summary is simple “I make design systems Better”. Find something similar.
@KarmaPolice does writing a summary matter? I found some guides online that say the summary doesn't matter if you are a junior/fresher.

Few things
1) Spacing. It's different everywhere, not sure how everyone comprehend that, but for me, it looks not-so-professional/elite.
2) Whenever I see numbers like 30, 40, 15, whole numbers, first instinct is they are fake. Even if they are genuine, use some not so common numbers like 29%, 36%, 17%, they look real.
3) maybe my adhd mind, but, again - what's general at the bottom? why summary has so much space left on right? No projects? BTech in? Why ur links r aligned a bit right (ik u have hide something stills it's pretty much right).
4) resume is wordy (ofc u might be dealing with white spaces, that's why maybe?) Alot of things r just pretty much obvious, for example "Collaborated with designers - every UI developer does"
5) that multi threading is ur main big thing, make it top on the list & be prepared for everything around it.
6) I'm not sure what your exactly did at Schneider, feels like thoda Backend, thoda frontend, but nothing much deep? If that's not the case, potray ur story differently!
Please Take them positively, just want betterment of u.

Lol
Text heavy
Almost no Headlines
Nothing about your personal life
Your achievements are so much yet not listed in a sequence
Sorry bro just honest opinion
Headline?
Is it required to include personal life?
Thanks for the inputs. I am looking out for such suggestions only!
@HMan1208 why one should include anything about their personal life. I don't think recruiters are interested in anything personal like hobbies, languages etc. In college freshers normally write abt personal life to fill resume.

Why can’t you take an subscription of zeta or some site and create modern template for resumes instead of these old school templates
When I used modern templates, many asked me to use the overLeaf template. Yeah will consider changing the template

I got job in Paytm as engineer even with resume ATS score of 25. Below 20 it gets rejected. Check your resume score if it's 80+ your resume will get shortlisted most of the times. Rest is skills, business requirement, notice period etc

I think the main reason for not getting an interview call is just owing to the job market, which is not good, especially as you have only 3 YOE. As for your resume, try condensing the bullet points to just 2-3 at max for each of your jobs with 1 final bullet point summarizes the overall impact of your work, as currently there is too much text. Additionally, condense the initial summary to 1-2 lines and remove the certifications.
I have conducted many interviews, and I don't care about the resume or its appearance. What matters most to me are the candidate's technical skills and their ability to perform the role.
The font is Not looking very good , Try Arial with text size 12 Bold for heading and 11 for text below the heading.
Spacing can be 1.15 with before, and after spacing being 6 pt and 4 pt respectively.
If you like can use some good Dark blue colour shade for heading and bullet points.
Skills might need refining.
I have a format , I personally feel it’s good , I made it in word , if you need I can share.
This is an anonymous platform. Why should he reveal his identity that way? 😂
If we go point wise for experience in 'Schneider' in the first point you're mentioned Angular and React as I know whether we use Angular or React but not both.
So you mean you know the MEAN stack and MERN stack.
In the second point you're mentioned you know spring boot as well. So you know the Java full stack as well.
In the fourth point you're mentioned C# as well.
In the fifth point you know the Devops as well.
In 2 and half years how many projects you did work.
Yup i worked in JavaScript full stack dev. I used both React / angular. Spring boot i have used(will it count for Java full stack? No ig)
I worked on a variety of things .. which can i omit/ignore?
Precise n Limited words could suffice, its like a book format. Alignment word wrapping in not done. Neglect Repeated words. Any external certificates could be additional value to your resume. Personal details like dob, residential address, place could be positive. Liners in summary etc, neglect them better use italics for sub heading with bold. You added more words like accomplishment like developed, maintained etc use implemented, managed etc
I am not a good reviewer but I could see your resume could be rejected in first place. Check ATS score 90+ so that in this competitive world your interview could be scheduled in top priority. All the best!
One easy way to do it is to paste the content you've written here in quotes and ask chatgpt to make it short and crisp. Uoi can also ask it to hold important words. Its a lifesaver

what was ur first ctc and current ctc? be very honest and what was ur branch in b.tech?
I am in the same company..Not yet switched(not much of a CTC change)
B.tech I did in instrumentation which was non-CS so I didn't include it in CV.
ok, Its not the problem of your branch. Branch doesnt male any difference. There are 6 lacs + B. Tech CS including BCA/MCA graduting every year in India and only 2-3 thousands have the real CS skills rest all are in rat race and taking the branch because of hype, parents/social pressure, show off or our of greed for money but they end of working for service and support roles where no technical skills required and suffer lifetine... Understand what is ur strength and learn/enhance skills in that area even if you have to change the domain or technology. You are just at the begininng of ur career.

Try a two column style, 1 big column for work experience etc and 1 small for education, skills etc
- Remove fluff words like “passionate” from the summary, instead add years of experience and core skills here
- Shorten each bullet point, remove phrases like “integral part”, instead use spearheaded/drove etc.
- Fix spacing and alignment to make it easier to skim across sections
- No need to mention your undergrad CGPA if you already have substantial work exp
- The link to your portfolio/website should be highlighted seperately the recruiter can see some live projects
