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, 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.
Non-bulletpoint feedback:
Your skills section has bad grouping
I would recommend keep Lanugages pure, and do a second BP for technologies, i.e
Usually people have one for Libraries/SDKs which could help too, since iOS and Android could be moved there (with their SDK equivalents) and it would show off more skills
Take out courses
Make your projects reverse chronological order
Put your start and end date for Education
Bulletpoint feedback:
Build iOS App for Local Bar:
Apart from Apple pay and Firebase DB (which one?), you did not mention any tech stack you used
You spent way too much focus on the “Situation/Task” with virtually no focus on “Action” and zero focus on “Result”
Then add one more line talking about results, if you have any (how many customers used it/how much scale the app can handle/anything numeric is ideal)
Craigslist-style Freelancing Job Platform, Android App
Charity Database
Peer-to-Peer File Sync App
Contributor to open-source video game project
Thank you so much for giving my resume such a thorough review, this has been extremely helpful for me.
You make a good point about showing impact through numerical metrics.
