XXX in bold is to hide company name, team and business divisions. Dont actually bold things in the middle of bullet points in the actual copy Got 5yoe in BI and Data analytics. Laid off 7mos ago and just started applying last month Previous feedback told me i was too wordy with my points. Point taken. Im wondering whether i should always mention name of tool/skill in bullet points but idk thats why im asking #jobs #resume #resumereview #data #businessintelligence
8 yrs experience and not an executive yet? I can’t help you.
Im just a mid 5 yoe guy my dude
5 and not a director? Do you even like your career path? Maybe plumbing is better for you since you’re already in the toilet.
There’s nothing wrong with your resume. No one is hiring.
that is both good and bad to hear. Thanks!
Very depressing. It seems only the super top candidates are getting any kind of response.
You'd do fine if you were applying at places looking for BIEs. People worry too much about their resumes. You're not getting call backs because people aren't actually hiring for your role. It's the market.
1. Consider increasing your spacing. Things feel a bit cluttered 2. Since you have experience in more than one job, consider adding a professional summary to make it clear what you're looking for Other than that, it looks like a great resume to me. If you need more help/advice, I've been working on a free job copilot platform called Canyon ( https://www.usecanyon.com/ ) that creates ATS approved resumes and analyzes your resume based on ~20 different criteria and scores your resume and tells you what you can improve. In addition to that, It can rewrite/enhance some of your sentences using AI (including generating a professional summary for you from your work experiences) to maximize for what employers are looking for the most (Not mobile optimized so check it out on desktop/laptop please). I've attached a screenshot below on how the resume builder / scoring works Check it out and let me know if i can help in any way
I wouldn’t be opposed to adding a summary - but im going to have to sacrifice something to make space for it Should i just tack out my oldest job? Its a contract job that i did before taking on grad school
As far as layout improvements, God yes. Such a basic concept most resumes are flat out terrible with. And for God sakes can we all please stop right-aligning our dates? Just fucking stick it under. I do not care if it flows over to page 2. If it's an English Lit paper at a glance it could be on an index card and I still won't read it.
Overall solid resume. Definitely would run this through an ats verifier and take the feedback. Also, why are you burying the lead by putting office ahead of ab testing? That should be forefront since it's a core competency. Also, often you could split up or shorten your longer sentences imo. E.g., the first point in your second job: "Ran effort to AB test page layout updates for continual improvement, boosting page visits..." or even ".... improvement. This lead to...."
what are some ATS verifier you might want to recommend?
It looks great mate, good luck
Use canva. To text heavy the résumé will make your visual stand out.
Honestly far too wordy in my opinion. No one reads these in such a detailed manner. I’d add a lot more white space to make it a little nicer. I use this site to generate my resume, it adds nice spacing and formatting. http://creddle.io/ But to be honest most of the opportunities I got reached out about have been from LinkedIn. Just make sure your LinkedIn profile is solid.
My linkedin profile is way wordier and has all the info from my resume and honestly my bullet points here is just a curation of the stuff i throw to my linkedin but thanks for your input, I’ll definitely work on the spacing
No one will read your giant wall of text that’s what he’s saying. It’s 100% correct. We don’t care what’s on your LinkedIn no one will read that either
Strategically - what are you learning right now to acknowledge that BIE roles were hit hard in the industry. I’d recommend highlighting some personal projects and tie into a summary statement of how you want to apply that. Tactically - like others said there isn’t enough white space and keep bullets to no more than two lines and a total of three per role.
Increase line spacing slightly from 1 to 1.15 or 1.5. More readable. Some points can be shortened, you can think of it from a recruiters pov, they wouldnt care if its a "division wide" "newly created" automated inventory, just say "orchestrated creation of automated inventory..."
I agree on spacing, hmm i think saying “newly created” im trying to say i led the new initiative with minimal guidance, division wide is for scope of impact. But i see following your advice there are points where i can apply it E: oh i see you were only talking about 1 point my bad
Yes, just used that point for example,you can shorten other points similarly. We might think something is important but that may not be the case. My resume looked just like that, i managed to reduce the length of my points significantly.
