I'm 22 YO with ~4 yoe, started my career early and got lucky.
My resume is 2 pages, I know I can reduce it to 1 page but it's already too hard to get a job like this. I'm located in Turkey, maybe that's the barrier but I couldn't even get an internship at any of the companies I applied internationally.

Roast me (and please help me get an internship or something)

Thank you

    Tbh it’s not worth spending too much time on Resume.

      I think I have to actively apply to jobs because of my location. What else do you suggest?

  • Way too long. Remove till it's a single page. I don't care about your clubs and stuff, I care about your experience and skills. If you have actual experience you don't have to include the fluff.

    Rather than saying broadly about doing 40 projects amongst other points, go deep into one of your best projects work that brings out your skills proficiency.

    Another point, make it achievement oriented than task oriented. Example - Improved xyz by 20% by developing abc using Language01.

    Avoid saying stuff like cutting edge and FAANG, it makes you seem like using these to improve your credibility and that working with them was an achievement for you rather than something very normal. So avoid using such terms and refer to technical stuff with authority.
