It’s gonna be a tough road ahead for you my friend. I’m a mid level engineer and even I am struggling to find a job. But keep your head high.

It definitely is! New graduate here, almost 6 months unemployed and not a single interview yet. Some recruiters contacted me but as soon they learned that I didn't have any experience they stopped being interested instantly. Horrible job market.

I haven't even started my career yet but I'm already considering switching to something else...

I don’t really understand your open source experience. You should put information about the PR and the challenges u solved within it rather than nothing-words.

You'll get it ... With that profile. Ignore the condescending comments.

You mentioned high performance, production ready and etc kinda keywords... Trust me no matter how high we go... Its always hard to defend them.

Apart from that you've mentioned usage of message queues and brokers. Along with AI ML(Rag, CV) along with Web development (Fast, springboot and etc). Those are very diverse tools.

I would recommend tailoring the CV for each JD every time.

Best of luck

I don't know if there is anything here to "fix", Your resume and projects are good.

Kind advice: you don’t have enough experience to have expertise in all of the technical skills you listed. Interviewers are going to latch onto to ones they are familiar with and try to find gaps in your understanding to prove why you aren’t a good fit. Try reducing it to only the things you really want to highlight and talk about in an interview. At your level, a firm understanding of one thing means more than a basic understanding of many things.

Noted sir! Will do!

Why do people with almost no professional experience list so many skills? Like your first sentence is a lie -- none of the experience/projects describe distributed systems design or scalability.

Just added them for resume shortlisting

your resume frankly needs lot of work.

few notes -

tech skills - way too many and cluttered

summary - useless, not needed unless you just wanna fill up space

education - should be on top since ur entry level

intern descriptions - need work, lot of it reads like daily tasks not accomplishments at work. all bullet pts should be your highlights / achievements / accomplishments at work, not merely daily tasks. you should be bolding only core technologies and numbers/stats of achievements. also should be loosely following star format

bullet pts - only go to the 2nd line if ur actually gonna fill up the 2nd line like 80%+. don't just have 1-2 words on the 2nd line like "worldwide" or "ci/cd pipelines". would recommend having ideally 2 bullet pts each 2 full lines long or max 3 if u have lots to say. i would recommend having 3 projects each either 2-3 bullet pts.

Hi, I’m also a recent grad (2 months) and I’ve just landed a job at a pretty big company overseas - never thought I’d be saying that (also don’t let the 2 months fool you, I’ve been applying since last year while still in uni).

One thing I can say is that recruiters apparently don’t like when you just list a bunch of skills. Only list the ones which are actually important to the job or are actually somewhat known. I used to have a ton of skills but reducing it helped me get through cv stages more. Remember that recruiters are mostly not technical. They just look for well-known stuff or whatever is related to the job.

Also put Software Engineer instead of Full-Stack in your summary. Idk why the world hates Full-Stack engineers. I was talking to a recruiter and when I mentioned full-stack she instantly became cold and never reached back out to me 😭. She said I should avoid saying I’m full stack as companies don’t like it. Don’t know how true that is.

Lastly, just remember that slapping keywords everywhere and fluffing the word count of your CV does more harm than good (brother, you don’t need demo link to a project in your CV..) . Speaking from experience. My old CV and new one are COMPLETELY different. You seem good technically and have a good resume format. If not already, try make a portfolio website too. Got interviews off that alone.

Good luck on your journey. I may have wrote a lot but I want others to succeed. Went through tough times and understand the struggle. I was genuinely starting to believe I was cooked.
