One bit of friendly advice, and that's to ensure that it's been proofread by a native English speaker. "How does it look like" is not a phrase that would be used normally, although the rule is certainly confusing and easy to get wrong.
"What does it look like" and "how does it look" are both correct, yet for whatever reason, using both the words "how" and "like" in that construction ends up sounding awkward.
I hope that doesn't sound critical, I'm just trying to be helpful. When it comes to resumes, every little detail matters, even the ones that shouldn't. Good luck!

- walterbell 9y agoThanks. The first three are software and the last one has human reviewers?
- ollerac 9y agoYes :)
- nsxwolf 9y agoI think "How does it look like" is actually wrong though I lack the grammatical education to explain why. "How does it look like" would be asking "How does it accomplish looking like <other thing>".
- lukeschlather 9y agoI think, in "What does it look like?" "What" is the object, the subject is "it." "How does it look like" has no object, so it's not a complete sentence because "look like" is a transitive verb (it requires a direct object when used in this context.)
