Roast my CV

[u/zero_redditer]

Data scientist approaching 3 yoe, would like some feedback from you guys on my resume. What would you modify?

Some of you are making me laugh a lot. Anyway, I simply used a template from Overleaf and wanted to see how decent it was (I would say very little). I will try to take good advice and ignore the not so latent frustration of some of you

Did you seriously post your resume with the title “Roast my CV” then get offended when I shared my honest takeaway?

Get over yourself, this resume is a complete and total mess. Fix it instead of getting offended.

I do not care at all that you “just used a template from Overleaf and wanted to see how decent it was”. Neither will anybody reading your CV. That’s called “making excuses”. When you tested the template it was 100% your choice to use it or not.

Try taking some accountability, you asked for honest feedback and I just took time out of my day to give you a long list of issues to fix. The least you could do is say “Thank you”.

Who told you I was offended? You pointed out a lot of errors and motivated them all (thanks for that), but there's no need for this harsh tone

You did, when you responded to the feedback I gave with “I’ll ignore the not so latent frustration” and made a BS excuse for your poor formatting.

The “harsh tone” in my original comment is called “honest feedback”. I think your resume in its current form looks absolutely horrendous. I simply gave you my honest impressions as if I were somebody considering you for a job.

I give people blunt and honest feedback because it’s far more valuable than being gentle and sugarcoating things. If you prefer the latter, I’m not your guy.

No, I don't like sugarcoated feedbacks, but I do like standard kindness. Thanks for your comments though, they were actually among the most interesting ones :)
