Software [2 YoE] Backend/Software engineer, started applying to new jobs and looking for some feedbacks on my resume

1 Upvotes

I’ve started applying for jobs and wanted to get some feedback on my resume. Please point out any issues or things you think I could improve.

I feel like some of my work experience bullets are a bit lengthy, but at the same time, I feel like I need to explain the work I actually did.

Would really appreciate any feedback or suggestions.

Software [4 YoE] SoCal SWE on the job hunt for the past couple of months. Recent changes to resume, wondering if its the mid-levelness of experience

2 Upvotes

Basically what the title says. My original post of the resume didn't get much feedback. Notified of layoff 5 months ago, officially laid off 2 months ago. Since layoff it's been mainly crickets. Last week I made some changes (reducing spill into the next line, removing periods, shifting skills section down, creating a templated cover letter with this resume's style that I quickly tailor for each app). I wonder if it's the lack of owned projects/leadership showing as firmly mid-level and not senior that is getting no traction. Could it be the lack of AI experience that's getting no traction? Seems like for a lot of job postings, I am on the cusp of mid-level/senior. Would appreciate the extra eyes and feedback on the resume itself, or other things that I could do!

Details, feel free to comment on these too:

- US Citizen

- SoCal area (OC/LA) - applying locally and remote, not relocating right now

- primarily backend experience, but am applying for full stack here and there

- initially received a couple of coding assessments and phone screens 3-5 months ago, haven't gotten any hits for the past couple of months

Automation/PLC [4 YoE] Automation/Controls Engineer - Recently laid off and looking for open roles

Hi all,

I just got laid off without notice from my current job. Rather than wallow in self-misery, I decided to get started on the grind asap. I'm looking for any open controls, automation, or robotics engineering roles in the Philadelphia area.

Civil [Student] - Civil: How can I improve my resume to attract more internship opportunities

1 Upvotes

I got incredibly lucky with my first internship, which has resulted in a verbal return offer. Even with this offer, I want to keep looking in other areas of civil. I'm currently a sophomore, and my one interview led to the offer. How can I best improve my resume to attract more opportunities this summer or even down the line?

Any tips regarding my resume or internship search are welcome and appreciated!

Mechanical [4 YoE] Mechanical Engineer targeting 2027 UK Mechanical Design / Manufacturing / Project Engineering roles

1 Upvotes

Mechanical Engineer with 4 years at LG Electronics, starting an MSc at the University of Manchester in Sep 2026.

Targeting 2027 UK graduate roles in mechanical/project engineering, including energy/offshore companies.

I’m mainly looking for feedback on:

(0) Good to read?

(1) whether 2 pages is justified

(2) which projects should be kept/removed

(3) whether the CV reads as too manufacturing-focused

(4) bullet density / readability

(5)whether my previous 4 YoE creates any concern for graduate schemes

Question [Student] Junior Aerospace Engineering Student looking for internship/resume advice

4 Upvotes

Hi everyone, I’m an aerospace engineering student at UCF looking to improve my chances of landing an internship. I’ve been working on personal engineering projects outside of class, including a SOLIDWORKS UAV wing (photo attached) where I modeled a NACA 2412 wing, designed the internal structure, did basic structural calculations, and iterated the spars to reduce weight.

I’m trying to build a stronger portfolio and get more hands-on experience. For those working in aerospace/mechanical engineering, what would you recommend I focus on next? Are projects like this useful when applying for internships, and what skills or projects helped you land your first engineering internship?

Any advice would be appreciated!
