Wow! Really great list of suggestions. Thank you for taking the time. Most of these are things that I have plans to address so let me go through your points.
- So my reasons for not including these jobs is not out of embarrassment. It was more just trying to keep my resume concise. It appears that I have been taking the wrong approach and I am going to try to make my job history tell more of a story.
- The whole being vague about my education was an experiment. I've had a lot of people tell me it was a bad move, and I am going to change it.
- I don't like the summary either. I have heard suggestions to just leave it off. If you have any opinions on that, i'd like to hear.
- I have been doing everything possible to shoehorn everything I can into the real estate one page offers. Perhaps I was too overzealous. This is another reason why i'm considering leaving off the summary all together.
- I agree. I haven't really been tailoring my resume as much as I should. I'm thinking I need to create a few different versions. One that is front-end focused, full-stack, and maybe IoT, although i don't have much confidence I would be qualified to go into that space.
- I'm happy to hear this last point. Before making this post I felt like there were insurmountable obstacles between me and the career that I want. Hearing that there are problems that are actually fixable with my strategy gives me more hope, so thanks for that.
- anonXae8ip7r 4y agoGood question about leaving off the summary. I don't feel qualified to offer an opinion one way or the other; like I said, I'm just some guy on the internet, and you should probably consult with someone with real hiring or resume-writing experience before taking any of my advice. But whatever approach you take, best of luck to you!
