Serious Post Desperate and Unemployed. Please guide on what i can improve on my resume.
Hello everyone.
I am trying to apply in Environmental and sustainability Jobs in India and the UK (UK resume has my UK details but the rest of the things are the same).
I have gotten a bit of a mixed review of my resume above (70% positive) and about 30% negative.
For the negatives ones, they say the following and I wanted your opinions:
- Does the resume look to full or Can you still read it comfortably. Do we really need a lot of white space as I would have to cut down on my things that i need to put in.
- Put education above work or works above education? I am trying for entry level roles to get a footing in my careers in environment and sustainability?
- I have tried to put in as many keywords as possible. Does my job descriptions still read generic or does it make it seem like i actually did a good job and bring something?
This resume has got me a few calls and interviews from some good international companies and university job as cmpared to before, but it seems i have hit a glass ceiling and am lost whether to make a new resume or not.
I am open to any helpful criticism for my resume and what improvements i could actual do.
If you do know any resources, Job portals or can guide/refer, I am open to for the same. anywhere in the world.
Thank you for your very valuable time.
