Resume - Updated with your advice...

[Stealth1024]

Greetings,

EDIT: I added a section for projects, added software and operating systems I was familiar with, deleted a few things including my high school information (even though I still feel graduating 1st in class and placing in national competitions is cool perhaps it just isn't relevant...?)

Have a look: http://www.sbyers.com/pdf/resume.pdfhttp://www.sbyers.com/resume.html

Alright I'm working on moving the top around to make it less cluttered.

Some might think there's a lot of info here but a lot of things are requested by various companies so I tried to cram it all in there...

initial thoughts:

borders too wide... seems like a lack of content.

too much white space on paper

will look more and tell you

My HR person told me never to put the line "References available upon request on your resume" - its implied - because if you dont you are SOL.

Any extra-curricular activitis in school? clubs etc? any leadership experience?

Any prizes/awards/scholarships/(maybe even deans lists etc.) ?

Any research you have done?

too much white space...give more details about what you've done.

Also take out the objective and interests...no one cares

Two much white space? Well when I print it I think the page is rather full with information, I mean I will gladly discuss the details of tons of projects I've done during an interview...

Well I took some of your advice and reworked it a bit.

1. spell check (pursuit...)
2. your personal information is hard to read. The phone numbers span both columns but the address is only on one.

Personally i would make your own format rather than use a Word template, granted it's a little different with the font you have but it's close. Everyone has those and making your own lets you stand out that much more.
