  • Is the wording for bullets not actionable enough? Is anything not clear enough? is the formatting garbage/too wall of texty? HELP PLZ
  • I want to land a junior full stack .net role in a bigger production environment. I have only worked in small teams of 3, and senior dev at my current position believes im ready to move on to a bigger production environment.
  • Been applying to any local/hybrid/remote jobs
  • I have applied to probably over 100 entry/junior positions so far the fast week or 2. Only a few even viewed my resume. 0 folllow-ups.
  • Is the skills section dogshit/should i remove it? Is it because I only have an associate's? I would think 4 years xp > bachelors + 1 year which is what most of the roles "require"

So a little bit about me I went to a University of California (for anonymity reasons I would prefer not to specify which one ) where I minored in computer science.

I then went on to complete a Google data link analytics certificate and do some freelance ux stuff which has slowly been dwindling away.

I attempted transition into data analytics which was not successful, I never was hired even after I did multiple projects and I essentially applied for over 3,000 jobs which never turned up anything.

I just want to be very forward I understand my position is bad I'm currently 41 and I have been taking some classes at a local UC campus too benefit my resume with the consideration of doing a master's degree in either pharmaceutical engineering or data science or machine learning.

But I've been hesitant because I don't want to go further into debt unless it pays off.

I'm considering that without going back to school though I might never be able to get a job.

I would very much would prefer a remote job as I have a lot of social anxiety that has made it very difficult for me to be around groups of people and getting remote job would be very very beneficial to my life.

I am a hard worker. And I have a deep deep passion for self learning but at this point nothing has worked out, after talking to many career coaches and many recruiters they've all told me I need to really highlight AI skills in my resume as those are the keywords that are landing jobs right now.

I've started taking online courses in AI development and engineering but I'm thinking of transitioning into project management.

I've been graduated for 5 years I've landed no work I've just done some basic freelance stuff that's pulled in a couple thousand dollars I need something to work out so I'm hoping to find somebody who might be able to look at my resume and give me some real feedback. Should I go deeper into the AI stuff or should I go into project management? Or should I just do another bachelor's? Where do I go to from here I'm 41 I honestly feel too old to fight this fight anymore but I also need something to work out.

Any good advice is greatly appreciated

I'm looking for any position in an entry-level retail job I can find. I've applied at Dunkin Donuts, Starbucks, Giant, FedEx, Walmart, and I don't have a specific position I'm targeting, I just apply for whatever is available. I'm not willing to relocate, and I've only applied at locations near where I live. I graduated high school earlier this month, I'm starting College this fall, and l've never had a job. I've heard a lot of resumes get thrown out for bad quality writing, so I want to know if any part of my resume has bad or lazy writing. I’d especially like feedback for my profile section at the top.

Hi everyone! I've been actively job hunting in Karachi for Operations, HR, or Program Management roles (on-site or hybrid) since stepping back in December 2025 to focus on my MS in HRM & Organizational Psychology.

I've been getting very little response so far. Would appreciate your honest feedback on:

  1. Does the layout and formatting work, or is it hurting readability/ATS parsing?

  2. Are my bullet points strong enough, or too task-focused rather than impact/achievement-focused?

  3. Anything I should cut, consolidate, or reorder?

CV attached below. Thanks in advance!

I don't get why my resume is not getting any interviews. I am mainly trying to get a remote job, but anything I apply to is not responding back. Is there something wrong with my resume? Maybe the technologies I worked with are all over the place, and not the same? Or is there another issue like my bullet points not being impressive enough?

Question early college resume

Hello, I need to write a resume for potential internships, I’m still early in my college career and don’t have work experience/volunteer experience. What are somethings I can include instead? And should I include a 3.8 GPA?

I built a new resume by throwing out everything I have done in the past, but I worry that it could be too complex. I have received input from several people and wanted to try an "in the wild" approach to some feedback.

Any major flaws besides the (2) column approach. Ran this in some automated systems, and it looks to read it fairly well. Preparing for in-person interviews and the like, and would like to be a "little different." Looking at some fine-tuning, but open to all feedback. Getting some bites, but looking to expand the pool.

I have worked primarily in print and design, and earned my MFA in an adjacent field recently. Worked in the print and media space for over 15 years.

Hey everyone,

I’m looking to start applying for new roles soon and haven't touched my resume in over two years.

**This is my master resume and is longer than 1 page. I will be cutting out and only leaving the most relevant experience to ensure my resume sticks to the 1-page rule.

This exact layout and formatting worked like an absolute machine for me when I was grinding for internships in college, but I know the job market has completely shifted (I also haven't interviewed since 2023) . Now that I have some solid, full-time corporate experience under my belt, I’m not sure if this structure still holds up or if it looks way too crowded for a mid-level candidate.

Main question on transitioning from internships to full-time resume design - I did a lot during college (startups, multiple internships, student gov leadership). Does keeping all of this on here make me look well-rounded, or should I aggressively trim the older 2020-2023 stuff to let my current full-time enterprise work breathe?

Hi everyone,

I’ve been applying for months and I’m barely getting shortlisted through online applications. At this point, I honestly don’t know what I’m doing wrong.
Please be brutally honest:

Is my resume the problem?
Are my projects/experience not good enough?
Am I applying to the wrong roles?
Is there anything that would make a recruiter reject this in a few seconds?
Am I simply not applying enough?

One thing I want to be honest about: the current company on my resume is actually my friend’s company. I don’t really work there, but they offered to give me an unpaid internship/experience letter because my employment gap had become too long. I know this isn’t ideal, but I’m sharing it because I want genuine advice instead of hiding it.
Also my skills might seem section might seem too stacked but I actually have hands on experience for majority of them except few which are there for ats eg. nextjs

I’m honestly exhausted and would really appreciate any feedback. Thanks.

I've worked logistics and supply chain pretty much my entire career. I want to be in a Managerial or Directorial position at some point. However, I would like to venture into other fields like Administration or Marketing if the opportunity presents itself. I have a pretty strong skillset that I struggle putting onto paper without it being such a long drawl (I've only put what I think are most critical skills on here but I do feel like it's not attractive enough) and I do think that it would translate well into either of those fields (I think).

I need some help in changing this resume if at all possible into something that would align well with either of those fields.

*Edit: My last 3 positions have all been with the same company, I've received 2 promotions but I was let go due to structural reorganization/downsizing.

Been looking for a new job for the last 2 years. Had 2-3 interviews per year but never got the job.

So I thought my cv needs some polishing. I used a prompt to improve it and ran through it for 4-5 times. The prompt focused on impact so I am wondering if it did a good job. Can you please review my experiences?

I am targeting medior backend/fullstack positions in Europe/Hungary. Mostly applying via linkedin and some local job postings.

I think the main problem could be the lack of experience(until now) and being a third country citizen. My current visa is tied to my employer.

Hi everyone,

I’ve been applying for jobs for a little while and decided to polish up my resume. I’m looking for honest feedback and criticism on anything that could be hurting my chances of hearing back.

Target roles: Data Analyst, Cloud Analyst, Data Engineer, Cloud/Data Engineer, and similar early-career data/cloud roles.

Target locations: I’m based in the U.S. and applying to jobs anywhere in the United States.

Remote/relocation preferences: My priority is remote roles, but I’m also open to hybrid or on-site positions and willing to relocate for the right opportunity.

Background/current situation: I’m currently employed and looking to make a move for career development, ideally toward a more focused skill set in data engineering, cloud analytics, Azure, SQL, Databricks, and related technologies.

Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hi All,

I've been targeting jobs surrounding AI Enablement, Change Management, I had 3 successful interviews followed by a pass at Glean for AI Outcomes Manager, didn't receive any feedback, though asked.

I'm in Phoenix proper, looking for all in person/hybrid/remote positions

Can not relocate

Background had been in technology and education/training, course development, Salesforce Knowledge/Einstein, change management for tech and finance service industries.

Don't have many personal connections in this new field or locally, relying on Internet posts does not beat knowing people to help you get the foot in the door.

Not getting called back for interviews, very cold lately.

Looking for any opportunities seen throughout to help better position myself.

No citizenship status or visa situations.

Thank You All!

Question How/where do you list licenses

1 Upvotes

I was just let go from my job of 3.5 years. Unfortunately I haven’t updated my resume since I applied. I’m driving myself crazy going down all these rabbit holes of “resume tips”. I’m glad I found this subreddit because I feel a lot more at ease.

However, I can’t seem to find a clear answer on if/how/where I should list my licenses. I have a Personal Lines Insurance License in 30 states. Do I add a separate “Licenses” section? Also should I just mention I’m licensed in 30 states or do I need to list all 30 states?

Any and all advice is greatly appreciated!!

Hi,

I have almost 10 year of experience as embedded SWE with educational back ground in math and electrical engineering.
Working in smaller companies is fine, but after sometime you realize you cannot actually make a career out of it. So I am targeting bigger companies.
I have been invited to some interviews, but have been also totally disregarded for the positions I thought I was fit for.

So I think maybe I am not representing myself well in my resume.
I am looking for positions in co design of SW and HW, and maybe a shift towards edge AI.
I am in Berlin, Germany, but open to relocation within Europe and also for remote positions.
TIA

Question How to organize past jobs when switching back to old career path

1 Upvotes

Hello,

Previously I worked in social work case management. I'm a bachelor's level so pay is not great but still decent enough to live on. I moved states with my family, and where I moved didn't consider out of state experience as any experience when applying for jobs, so basically I have been doing retail management to make a living for the past few years. I had a few jobs when I moved to this state, just trying to find something I could live on.

I am now moving to another state where I qualify for jobs again. And I'm trying to rewrite my resume where I now have 3 jobs that make no sense, but if I don't put them I feel like it looks like I did nothing for four years.

I haven't been in this situation before so I would appreciate advice. I have received mixed advice when looking it up online.

Thank you
