Ask HN: Evaluate my CV

2 点作者 i6mi6超过 6 年前

I've submitted my CV to multiple positions requiring the exact same skills I already have, but got either denial or no response. I think I can cope with anything in the job listings I applied for, but maybe I am not conveying the information in a good way? Perhaps I am not good enough? What would you say if you were looking for someone with similar skills to mine?CV: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TFSHaD3D1ZzLrjN-CMlROleoiMiBfkui/view

- move technical skills and certifications to the bottom- limit projects to top 3 relevant to job- not a fan of about/technical quote part, but that's up to you. only comment about that is that it takes more than half the first page.- "multiple startups": this tells me absolutely, nothing.- it took me about 5 minutes to read your resume, and my conclusion is that you have 1 year experience as a software engineer. intern probably since it was 6 months. probably not accurate, but that's how it reads- how come you have like 10 projects, but not a single one was from your "freelance developer" time?- cto @softzen: skills->"anything", that's cute, but means nothing

This is way too long! A resume should be no longer than one page. Look up resume templates for jobs you are interested.

This is too general. Highlight your main skills for the job you apply for. Perhaps highlight the necessary skills for the position you apply for in a different color.And starting with "Frameworks and programming languages are tools. Tools come and go." is a very good approach, but Recruiters don't like it. A Resume is to tell them what skills you have they need and why they should hire you.

Did you follow-up with the denials and ask them why they didn't pick your resume?
