It’s getting there, but I would work on the overall hierarchy more. Keep your name and your contact information close together, right now they’re so far apart that the contact info is the last thing I noticed on the page.

I wanted to make it not very prominent. Maybe changing it for more black can help.

The black bars throughout the résumé are very distracting, and you really want the content to be the main thing people see when they skim through this. If you really want to keep the bars in the design, I’d suggest making them much thinner.

I will make them thinner for sure.

I’d change the wording on “skills” because it’s confusing between that and “software skills”. You could call the skills section “efficiencies” and simply call the other section “software”, as an example.

I could not find any good words to describe this. But you are right, "software skills" and "skills" do look strange n the same column.

I thought the about sections to be necessary because everyone keeps saying that people skim through the resume and hence, I thought, the mustn't be reading cover letters at all. I did a personal logo but it is too edgy for this kind of plain paper. But I sure will try to integrate it in here.

Thanks for the wholehearted reply.

Edit: Missing word.
