    Your resume is the last thing they will give a shit about. The resume is really for the recruiter more than the hiring managers.

    Small tip, read the job description and just mimic it back (eg ‘Should have experience with GQL’, Mimic back ‘Comfortable with GraphQl’ if it’s true). That will get past the recruiter.

    This resume template is perfectly fine:

    Latex resumes let you just focus on the content instead of the template, go with that (many of us do).

    I have something very similar to this one:

    ^ I’d make the professional summary shorter, and use it to just briefly outline your core skills.

    Don’t try to stand out, instead try to present yourself in a standard and classy way. That stands out more than overtly doing lame shit like using colors, pictures, etc.

    I have enjoyed learning LaTeX to create my résumé.

    Some hiring folks won’t even look at a resume but use work product samples instead
