Just some general advice, but you should tailor your resume to the job you're applying for. Never submit a general resume that attempts to capture your entire career. That you apply to hundreds of jobs tells me that you aren't making those key adjustments to your resume that will get you noticed.
When I see a resume that lists tons and tons of technologies, I just think it's BS, and frankly, most companies only work with a handful technologies, so listing ones they don't use is just noise.
- muzani 9y agoI disagree somewhat on tailoring resumes. Resume writing is hard work. I think a resume should show someone's general experience, and the cover letter should highlight relevant ones or minor things that aren't in the resume.
- just_visiting 9y agoI agree. Listing many skills not needed for the job can be distracting. I always had my sister (H.R. Director) fine tune my resumes. I recommend finding someone that can help you do the same. It also helps avoid making you look like a "jack-of-all-trades, master-of-none". Determine exactly what kind of support a company is looking for, and write your resume for that job.
