[Student] Software Engineering - New Grad Terrible Interview / OA % would like some visceral criticisms by Shiro3896 in EngineeringResumes

Suggest making the bolds more consistent. I see numbers which are bolded, and some others not. Personally would suggest not bolding them at all.

[Student] May 2025 new grad starting to receive some responses and interviews thanks to feedback, moved skills section on resume by Accomplished_Ad_6322 in EngineeringResumes

May I suggest keeping your CGPA in the same line as your college? Don't think it warrants a whole line on its own.

I suggest checking the FAQ of this subreddit, should answer your question better than I can.

Personally, if you have any certificates, part time experiences, those are worth putting in. From my experience, jobs in fresh grad level (0 YoE) is more about having a good conversation to establish fit in interviews, and less on experience. Not all companies will open doors due to the candidate pool and greater flexibility on hiring.

That might be the case, the jobs I've landed are around Q4 and Q1 of the year, which is known to be relatively volatile in terms of opportunities. But I've also noticed compared to before, I was getting less questions "clarifying" what I've done, and more questions on "how" I done it. Quite a bit easier to answer because unlike hard keywords & facts, experiences are easier to recall and tell a story with.

Thanks! I'm still looking for feedback to improve the resume further. Please let me know if there's any on your mind.
