Hey, I’ve been struggling to get past screenings and I think my CV might be the issue. Posting it here for honest feedback. I’ve got strong hands-on experience + decent theory (no certs yet). Any advice on how to improve it would mean a lot 🙏

tailored this cv for retail and warehouse jobs need harsh advice on what can be improved got 5 yrs of retail experience and i also have a driving license that ive held for 10 months

Contact details will be up top but keeping anonymous here for obvious reasons lol.

It is actually all one page its just my phone wont show it all in one, not sure what else is needed, any advice is genuinely appreciated.

Hey everyone,

I'm a solo iOS developer and I've been building CVPilot, a small app that checks your CV/resume for ATS (applicant tracking system) compatibility. You upload your CV and it gives you a score, a breakdown across 5 criteria (with the exact lines it's reacting to), and concrete fixes you can actually apply.

I'm not here to sell anything — I genuinely want feedback from real people before I build the next features. Honest, even brutal, is exactly what I'm after.

A few things I deliberately did differently:

• No account, no sign-up — you just open it and use it.
• Privacy-first: your contact details (email/phone) are masked on your device before anything is sent for analysis.
• No fake locks or made-up "trusted by millions" claims — I really dislike apps that fake that stuff, so I tried hard to keep it honest.

You get 2 full analyses free — enough to analyze → apply the fixes → re-analyze and watch your score actually move. Matching your CV against a specific job description is the paid part.

What I'd love feedback on:

1. Does the score + breakdown feel trustworthy, or does it read like generic AI output?
2. Are the fix suggestions actually useful for your real CV?
3. Was there anything that made you hesitate to even upload your CV?

Link + screenshots below 👇 Thanks a lot for taking a look — every bit of feedback genuinely helps me decide what to build next. 🙏

Hi!

Swedish student in my mid-20s nearing graduation for spring semester '27, gonna start applying to positions as fast as fall semester starts in a month because that's generally when most post-grad jobs get released from large companies and most traineeships open their applications. I've had to anonymise a fair amount. Given my roles, I'm quite googlable as I appear on several organisations websites contact pages.

I recently did my cv in English, previously only having a Swedish one so some translations might be a bit quirky so say the least at the moment. It makes somewhat more sense in Swedish at times, I will iron out spellings later but in general is it a competitive and good cv? Especially for management traineeships?

Some things are a bit standard to have on your cv in Sweden, like you generally always include if you have a drivers license, and any and all languages. Several job positions from before my studies aren't on the CV to keep it at 2 pages maximum as that's the general consensus to keep it at.

any advice would be very much appreciated! where it says [FILL] is where I would tailor it to a specific role.

每次我修改简历，调整字体、行距和格式都要花费很多时间。有没有人有什么好的建议呢？

I only worked at the farm job for a few days, the pub job however was a handful of shifts over the span of a few weeks. It was cash in hand but from what I've read that doesn't seem to matter?

I wasn't sure whether to put the farm one as I didn't work there long at all, but when I asked my local job center and they said i should put it anyway.

I have no GCSE's, attended a college for a couple months with nothing to show for it, I went and got level 2 food and hygiene literally just to have something to put on this.

How can I improve upon this?

Is my cv too short? I've heard recruiters prefer 1 page cv hence I summarize all my work experiences.

Any recommendation or advise? I really wanted a new job.

Hi everyone! I’ve been trying to find a job for almost three years now. During that time, I managed to get a temporary customer representative role on a short-term contract, worked briefly at a fast-food restaurant that hired pretty much anyone and left recently due to toxic work drama, and completed some work experience and volunteering.

I’d really appreciate it if anyone could look over my CV and let me know if there’s anything I should change or improve. I’ve revised it countless times, but I still can’t seem to get anywhere. It’s honestly becoming quite disheartening. Out of all the jobs I’ve applied for, I can count on one hand the number of interviews I’ve actually been invited to :(

Any advice or feedback would mean a lot. Thank you!

I’ve revised my resume again—still for a customer service role—but this time I’ve tried to move away from empty rhetoric and focus on concrete experiences. For instance, instead of just saying I "provide solutions to clients," I now describe how I helped unemployed individuals apply for the annual payment option.

I still lean towards applying for a position at a bank.

I welcome any suggestions regarding the content of my resume.

Thanks!

First time making a CV for college. I'm an incoming sophie with not much experience pa from college. Since CV is a comprehensive list of all experience, should I include until SHS? JHS?

More questions if I should include or no:

• Current scholarship/s?

• All seminars, trainings, achievements? (or should I just pick the relevant ones and limit it to a number)

PS. I am familiar with resume-making so this is CV-specific. The CV is for application for Student Assistant. Any tip is appreciated, thank you!

Please help, I'm miserable. I've been applying to roles/graduate schemes in product design, mechanical eng, biomedical eng, product development, R&D and have been getting nowhere.

Currently I just finished all the home labs of wazuh course and I want to assign it on my resume but what should I talk about it write exactly

Every time I revise my resume, adjusting the font, line spacing, and formatting takes up so much time. Does anyone have any good tips for this?

Hello Everyone

I'm preparing my CV for my masters and I was wondering if there are online templates available that can serve as a guide.

I have downloaded a University specific format too and I plan on using those for that specific University but....

At the same time, I was hoping to create one that could be universal and serve for jobs too.

I want to incorporate my research experience into the CV and I'm having difficulty in how to layout the PI, the lab, the sub divisions, the assignments, the tasks etc.

I also want to add my undergrad research experience which a friend said should be separate but i thought it would look more neat under my undergrad experience rather than chronologically mentioned under my research experience.

Any professional insight will be welcomed.

Thank you.

So I’m trying to transition out of theatre into a new role I’m open to whatever that may be, so I’ve had this non theatre resume to generally show what I’ve done . I have also worked front of house at a venue, I apply for a lot of jobs mainly part time roles and don’t get a lot of responses. What is my resume lacking in? Have a I left out too much info/ should I be including more? Or do I just have a fugly design lol 😵‍💫

Hello Reddit,

I am planning to apply to UK penultimate year consulting internships in the upcoming application cycle. I was hoping to get any guidance or advice regarding my CV, especially since I only recently decided to go for consulting after realising law was not for me.

I removed a couple of experiences like my tutoring (maths) which I have done since May 2026, as well as having not mentioned any of my law first year schemes since those do not seem relevant to consulting (though I am unsure if adding them would make me stand out and look more unique).

I am pretty sure internships require university grades on there so that took up quite a bit of space. I am not sure if a professional summary is necessary, so I would appreciate any advice on that.

I only became interested in consulting when I started the pro bono consulting internship, so I have not done case competitions or anything of the like.

I am not aiming for MBB (since I do not think I am competitive enough or go to a target school for that), but I am interested in any other firm (specifically like PA Consulting, FTI Consulting etc). I would also greatly appreciate any guidance on which firms I should target.

I would greatly appreciate any and all feedback, thank you for your time. Have a great day!
