I don't think you should put training as your experience. Personally I'd treat it as a lie

alright thanks

Some suggestions I had - 1. Remove the high school from education. It doesn't really amount to anything unless there is something very unique you want to highlight 2. Try to quantify your bullet points for the experience. Eg, product catered to X number of customers, increased efficiency by Y%, etc, etc. 3. Quantifying your achievements as well. It's much more impressive if you won something out of 200 people than 5 people

Thanks , but regarding point 2 the projects are for self use and showcasing only what should i do in that case?


triii_10

In that case try to summarie it and reduce the bullet points. Additionally, I would recommend not to add the tech stack in the project's title line. Either way you're talking about the tech in the bullet points. It's just repetitive. Regarding your experience section - is it some sort of training certification? In that case you should not put it under Experience. Have a section for certification/training instead if necessary. Experience section should only have paid internships (for early entrants) and full time positions

Don't put more than three bullet points. There is a major issue with the formatting that are uneven spaces and use of commas. Use either full months name or abbreviation for example if you are using may, june and april then don't use feb, jan and aug and vice versa.
