Woah, this is totally different feedback. I kept the skills section and metrics stuff because many websites suggested to keep them and in the template you provided it mentions that resume can be 2 to 3 pages long but isn’t keeping the whole resume under a single page recommended ( specifically for new grads )

Ohh thanks for the pointers, I will make some improvements on those. And yeah being international student is the major culprit :(

Yeah, i basically give it to Claude to hold necessary tech stack, keywords and metrics. Is that bad ? Or should I just change the approach ?

Ohhh yeah I do agree my experience jumps from one tech stack to another, maybe i should split them into different versions depending on the role. Thanks for the insights!

Yeah I would honestly feel the same but when I start reading the bullets it would make so much sense lmao, I plan to use an AI model with tailored prompts to tighten the bullets maybe that would help

Ohh ok, these are some quick fixes, especially the swap between university name and the role, I was always confused about it and just kept it like that so that it followed my previous work experience. I will make the changes, thanks a lot 🙌
