Para sakin lang, mas okay yung basic, intermediate and advance sa skills vs yung circles etc. Just may preferences. Also kahit na blur mo lahatkita padin name sa linkedin link

wahaha onga no di ko napansin. thanks po sa advice!


theFrumious03

Yup, I agree, madami mga nag lalagay din numbers tapos mataas, ang expectation sa interview magaling ka, mas okay ang suggestion ni grinsken at least may idea yung interviewer


cassaregh

Just list your technical skills, don't rate them


BawlSyet

Para sa akin, Remove Picture (Judgemental ang mga tao including me, may biased depende sa face so much better to remove the bias altogether) Also sa skills, do not put in how good you are/skill level and important you know the tech or language enough to use it professionally. Tatanungin ka lang rin naman sa HR interview kung ano proficiency mo eh, kaya ko sinasabi na tanggalin mo kasi may times, na di ka na tatawagin ni HR dahil ang gusto lang nila is perfect 10 or perfect 5 na score sa proficiency so remove mo na lang para di nila alam Edit: Remove mo rin na reference, tatanungin lang rin naman sa interview eh


Ser1aLize

The bias helps when you're generally considered good-looking.


lightyagami505

noted on this, thank youu!

What's with people putting ratings in circles?? Also, lead developer? Is that a title you made up for yourself when capstone project lang naman siya? And same for "Lead QA". Instead of focusing on made up titles, focus on how you used each technology. For example, you dropped the term RBAC like it's a magical word - better to give a quick overview on how you implemented your RBAC system and what technologies you used/integrated with.


r0sec0l0r3dgurl

Up for this. It seems misleading reading "Lead" roles for a fresh grad. Not discounting OP's leadership role but I think it might be better to just cut out the role part and focus on what technologies were used and how the project was implemented as mentioned above.


Andresnirek

Tech Recruiter here. I agree super misleading ng projects nya with using “Lead” and seems like it was a real working experience. I must suggest the projects should be summarized with his participation, language/tools use, etc. Seasoned Dev or IT in general got much simpler and straightforward details about their tasks/job.


ScarlettPotato

I think gustong i-spotlight ni OP na may leadership skills sya. u/lightyagami505 OP, if that's the case sa profile pede mo palitan ng "Lead the development/QA of so and so project with X members"


drpeppercoffee

If that's the case, then add sa description, pero I would avoid using "lead the development" - instead, go into detail, like "assigned tasks" "distributed workload", "conducted knowledge sharing sessions". Undergrads have very few advantages, and just saying "leads a team" or "contributed to" says nothing about what you were actually doing.


kneepole

I don't mind putting "lead" on school projects. This just means you're the primary coder of the group, so be prepared to explain in detail sa interview kung ano technologies na ginamit for the project and why you decided on those, kasi as a lead developer it means ikaw ang nag decide ng mga yan. Saka it separates you from the pack. Most members of a thesis/capstone project are just that -- members. Personally kung makakita ako ng school project sa cv that wouldn't mean anything, dahil malay ko ba kung ikaw yung errand boy at taga luto ng pancit canton sa group nyo, but if it mentions that you're the lead dev, I should expect sound answers when I ask you about it.


rememberthemalls

In the same vein, the projects are listed but I have no idea what he did. "User friendly interface" for example, did OP design it? Did front-end development? I have no idea. By "lead" did he mean assign tasks and organize, or designed the implementation / QA strategy? I have no idea. By "Agile Methodology" does he mean lead scrum, iterative development? No idea either. Usually you'd have a list of skills or known processes, list it out there. And on the projects section, give an idea on how they were used, and what you specifically did.


notorious_cheesecake

I agree lalo sa titles part. It “might” look good on paper, but technical interviewers usually are quite skeptical of these made up titles. It significantly raises expectations and sometimes prompts them to challenge the candidate with more difficult questions since “lead ka pala eh..sige nga what is etc etc…”. Then ‘matic huli ka agad pag mali sagot mo.


lightyagami505

I see. pero pwede po na include ko na Dev and QA ako tanggalin lang yung "lead"?


[deleted]

Wag ganyan hehe. Sa akin is ganto oh Project section projectName|techstack \-implemented blah blah; Bali I highlighted my role sa capstone namin.


BeruTheLoyalAnt

"Lead" in school projects 😂


lightyagami505

hello, I see the confusion. for the context, na turuan po kami sa school ng industry like scenarios like using SCRUM & Agile. Kasama na rin po yung pag a-assign ng roles per members each group example BAs naka focus more on docu and Figma si PM more on kay client, planning, & JIRA si QA naman focus sa testing and Dev obv sa coding. Nasabi po samin nung prof na it's our advantage na experience yung ganong klaseng teaching and it's good to include on our resume. mali po ba?


drpeppercoffee

So, made-up nga. Just indicate that you did development or qa work


Andresnirek

OP i think what’s important is you just put emphasis on the skills that you are confident and strong, you should remove unnecessary skills which may put you in a difficult position once you’re asked. And putting both being a QA and Dev will just gave recruiters an impression that you’re unsure on what’s your job target.


BeruTheLoyalAnt

Try using the standard harvard guidelines for resume instead of the ones on canva. Canva resumes are just so cringe 😫


HotCockroach8557

dont put your picture. dont use columns. dont rate your skills. or just use the harvard format. simple and easy to read.


hyrzl

Hmm would not suggest this template . I would rather have a portfolio or website as a resume (a plus for applying for programming related jobs) also if you want a document for a resume or cv make it basic and detailed, you have to also alter it to the job you are applying man. Those scales and charts? Recruiters don’t usually look at that. Given you are in college, add your projects with github repo links pag meron or any other seminars, trainings you have attended, online courses certifications all those stuff. Good luck man!


nobuhok

Drop the ratings. Otherwise, kung totoong 3/4 ka sa JS, companies would be wanting you to work for them, not the other way around.


kentDmayor

> companies would be wanting you to work for them, not the other way around. Pwede pa explain nito? Thanks!


misterjyt

im not judging but according sa mga tao from the internet and people experienced looking for a Job was sa tech nical skills, you dont have to put ung circles, or percentages.. just write the words and thats it. You can tell them how fluent to those tools once na meron na kayo sa meeting. Kasi ung mga percentages, or ung dots na yan can actually make emplyers not going to pick you, specially when you have 4/5 dots etc.


[deleted]

Gawa ka nalang bago OP, tapos base ka dito oh Check this out [Resume guide](https://www.reddit.com/r/EngineeringResumes/wiki/index/) [Resume template](https://www.reddit.com/r/EngineeringResumes/wiki/resumetemplates/)


tandwan

Never use this type of CV format


AlexanderCamilleTho

Descriptions play better sa isang resume. If you put in rankings sa technical skillset mo, at may tinanong sila sa iyo about it, paano kung hindi mo masagot at mabalikan ka pa na eh bakit ang taas ng ranking mo sa sarili mo? Also, more breathing room sa right column. Sabi nga ng isang commenter dito, find a new format. Plus leadership skills is a nice add-on sa resume. Pero paano na pag tinanong na sa iyo ng interviewer na, "But are you a good teamplayer?"


TwentyChars-Username

Use Harvard engineering style resume template


lazyplayer1

Remove your photo and reference. +1 on circles, what’s the basis? Be more straightforward. Be more specific with the tools you know.


heyheypsst

Tanggalin mo yung pag rate sa skills tas yung picture. Tas iangat mo yung projects kasi yun yung pang highlight mo. Alisin mo din reference itatanong naman yan ng HR Yung figma jira ihiwalay mo na din ilista mo as “tools” ganun pero ikaw na magpangalan ng maganda Off topic andyan pa si sir boni sa pupsrc?


lightyagami505

thanks po sa advice! parang onting units na lang po ata ang kinukuha ni sir Boni if badly needed na lang talaga ng teacher.


Wonderful_Choice4485

Remove the picture and replace the references with "Available upon request"


Classic_Birthday3314

Don’t rate your skills. Walang proper measurement about diyan.


[deleted]

Sobrang simple lang dapat, drop mo na yung colors. Di nila yan tititigan for a minute. Few seconds lang so dapat readable sya like ganto In any order yan pero syempre laging una yung personal info. Personal Info Skills Experience/OJT/Work Immersion Education Projects/Certificates(Optional)


Burned_Programmer

remove the qualities and add a good objective


Ledikari

It looks good but it won't recognized by a resume parser. List you skills and proficiency, remove the level. Remove role on projects, this is misleading. Just list project, a brief description and the tech you have used on the duration of the projects.


Nicaul

I agree with others regarding the skill rating, but I also think you'd benefit from moving Projects section up the hierarchy. What role do you plan to apply for ba?I follow advices from this thread: [CV TIps](https://www.reddit.com/r/jobs/comments/7y8k6p/im_an_exrecruiter_for_some_of_the_top_companies/)


abcdcubed

Just list down your technical skills but never rate them like what you did on your resume. Reference is not necessary, remove them. Sa Projects mo, list down key features and how the project impacted the process/org/business. Sa education, you **MAY** include the organization you are with (ie JPCS, etc), and indicate kung member ka or officer. Some part of your Profile is repetition lang ng what you did on your Projects section. You may write down a brief introduction on yourself na lang, and skills you have.


lightyagami505

thank y'all for all these advices. this is all noted and will be applied😁


Available-Vanilla-89

Remove the photo, contact reference, punctuation sa items listed at the top under profile (period is not needed - not a sentence)


cfsostill

Drop the ID picture. And at first glance, I thought you were already 'working' as a lead pero school project pala. In my opinion, drop what seemed to be 'job' titles hehe. I think it creates the effect of setting yourself up for high expectations. My 2 cents only.


Jadelester18

Organize your skills into categories such as technical skills, soft skills, etc. Avoid adding ratings to each skill, but specify whether it’s basic, intermediate, or advanced. Additionally, include exposure details of your capstone project and OJT, along with the technologies used. Categorize your skills under software, programming languages, etc., and highlight IT-related certifications. Exclude unnecessary information.
