    What is wrong with my resume? I'm applying for software developer roles

    After 200 applications, not a single response. I would like to know if anything's seriously wrong with my resume content or format. Any advice or tips would be super appreciated, thanks.

    Video production Resume Review

    I've been searching for a new job to move forward in my career for the better part of a year, and after hundreds of applications, I've had little to no luck getting interviews (around 5 in total). A few weeks ago I revamped my resume to see if that would increase my chances, and after a couple dozen applications with the new resume, I still don't have a whole lot of anything.

    For some context, I'm looking for a job in video production, primarily as a video producer, production manager, or creative director/manager.

    Any/all feedback is welcome and please let me know if there are any glaring issues you see or areas for improvement, if you have any questions please reach out and ask.

    Feedback on Data Science Internship Resume

    Hi all,

    I’m a Master’s student Morocco, and I’m actively looking for a Data Science internship starting in February 2025. My goal is to apply for positions both in Morocco and internationally, aiming for roles in Data Science, Machine Learning, or related fields. I’d love feedback on my resume to make sure it’s as strong as possible.

    A few questions:

    • Is the content clear and impactful?
    • Should I include a photo?
    • Any essential skills or sections I’m missing?

    Thanks so much for any advice!

    Applying for entry level positions in insurance (UK), please critique my CV

    Hi all,

    After working nothing but temp office jobs punctuated by long stretches of unemployment I've decided to buckle down and try to get a steady permanent job, and I think given where I'm at something like a junior claims adjuster might be a good fit for me. Here's a variant of the CV I've been using when applying to other temp jobs, I'd appreciate some feedback on it if possible.

    https://preview.redd.it/g5hc0orb93zd1.png?width=1018&format=png&auto=webp&s=8184572059e7a5bed2fbe90868b3c6f589cee0e2

    I appreciate that its probably a bit rickety & could do with some improvement.

    [8 YoE, Account Executive, Account Executive, United Arab Emirates]

    Hey everyone,

    I'm an experienced sales executive who has recently started having issues with the current company. Naturally, I am looking at other options.

    However, every company I apply to rejects me. I think I only have a 5% success rate at this point, which has never been the case. A friend suggested this subreddit to me, and I am hoping you all can critique this resume and help me not get smacked in the face on email by HR execs every day lol. Here is some more info if that helps:

    • I am looking at software companies primarily
    • Any sales role - SDR, BDR, AE, AM, TL. Remote or on-site, and in the UAE. I am located in Dubai.
    • I keep getting rejected even before the first step
    • I have my own visa and don't require sponsorship

    I would appreciate any help!
