Not sure how good it is, but here's mine: fullstackstoic.com/resume/

I wanted it to be a simple, easy to read webpage that had a lot of stuff if you knew what you were looking for.

Q: What tools do you use to make your resume?
A: LibreOffice Writer

Seriously, I have never used a fancy tool to create one. Just something like Word or Open Office Writer has done the trick.

In terms of content I try to keep it to 3-4 pages and have the following sections in mine. This seems to work well in my country, expectations may be different in other countries.

• General Details - containing my full name, email address, postal address, phone number, LinkedIn profile and personal website links.

• Personal Statement and Career Objective - a couple of paragraphs explaining who I am, what I have done, and what I would like to do going forward.

• Technical skills summary - table of top 6 skills including their name, a rating (low, med, high) and a short description of how many years I have used PHP, html etc skills. Put high skills first.

• Employment timeline - Names and dates of companies I have worked for with the newest first. I include my job title and a couple of sentences describing what I do / did there including the technologies and processes used (Agile for example).

• Qualifications and Training History - similar to the employment timeline, this contains dates and names of my qualifications including the institution I studied at. Sometimes I include additional details such as when I was top student on one of the courses.

• Referees - names, job titles, and contact details of a couple of referees. For CVs submitted online to job websites I often delete this information and just put "this information is available on request".

Generally I think shorter is better. Recruiters and companies don't have the time to read a whole novel about your life, so details should be succinct. In interviews they will normally ask you to go in to more details about particular roles then.

Also since team fit seems to be as important as technical ability, in the website linked to in the resume I like to have a section on personal hobbies and interests.

There is a very awesome post by @agazaboklicka about how to create a resume that follows SOLID principals.

I made my CV using LaTeX: osdev.me/lkurusa_CV.pdf . Let me know if you'd like the source!

canva.com/ is a great web tool that you can use to create a resume and so much more

Overleaf and JSON Resume are both options you may find useful!

I was trying to make a custom layout resume, and I ran into some technical difficulties.

• HTML/CSS - don't do it, the differences between what you see in the browser and what you print will give you headaches. 2 days for me was enough
• documents (word, writer ...) - still has some view/print differences, padding and so on.
• drawings (tools like canva.com or google slides) gave me the flexibility I wanted to be creative and 0 differences between what I see and what I print.

PS: print = export to pdf

Hey! I've noticed that in this post you use "guys" as a reference to the entire community, which is not made up of only guys but a variety of community members.

I'm running an experiment and hope you'll participate. Would you consider changing "guys" to a more inclusive term? If you're open to that, please let me know when you've changed it and I'll delete this comment.

For more information and some alternate suggestions, see dev.to/seankilleen/a-quick-experim....

Thanks for considering!

Hi Jishnu,

Take a look at this blog post about a front end developer resume, which might help you out.

There's some great advice in there to get you started at least.

It's always about value proposition, how you see yourself fit in, and what you can bring to the company. Make it readable, and don't use fillers. You have to be short and concise while expressing yourself.

As for resume templates I would suggest sticking to a traditional layout, as too many colors, icons and what not just shifts focus away from what's really important, which is who you are, and what you can bring to help the company.

Feel free to reach out to me for any feedback regarding your resume.

Hope this helps, Good luck!

I have used this resume template from 1millionresume. It looks good and ats friendly
