Eyes on my resume

Post by Ambush Commander »

I'll be applying for my very first tech internship soon, and I needed to write a resume as part of it. Would anyone here be willing to take a quick eyeball at it (it's two pages long) and give comments? Thanks!

P.S. I'll PM you if you express interest.

It's got personal information. While any determined identity thieve could figure it out anyway, might as well take a few precautions. Would you like to see it?

I'm in. And for the record, there are millions of resumes (intended and otherwise) posted around the internet. Even social sites like LinkedIn post some of your information (not all personal stuff).

Anyway, I would love to see your resume.

For my internet resume, I tend to hide the more private information (Address/phone number etc), and have my email as a way to contact me. But for the real world, all the information needed is there.

I have my address and phone number online, but that's not really enough to steal an identity with... any freelancer would probably have the same level of information online :) Bank account number, passport number, drivers license etc would get you in trouble.

I'll have a read over it yeah :)
