When you talk about Pareto Education, remove the “about” bullet point or reframe it to be an action verb about what you’ve done (ex. Provided tailored tuition for x number of students)—don’t waste space on your resume explaining something other than you. The two bullet points about the EBIDTA are nice to have, but you might want to reframe it as an achievement of your own (ex. Developed business plan projected to grow EBITDA 75% from €20k to €35) rather than a fact about the business.
Make sure all your verbs are the same tense; under The Alfredian, you have “Write…” and “Constructed…” You need to reconcile the tenses and make sure the entire resume uses either past or present. Personally, I use past. It might be a good idea to change “Positions of Resposibility” to “Leadership”
Double-check your punctuation. Under Academic Interests, you’re missing a comma between machine learning and validation algorithms—or, if “Machine learning Validation algorithms” is one thing, make the V in validation lowercase.
(Edited to remove a bad suggestion)
Those are incredible A-levels, why remove them?
Also: Imagine putting Drill music on your CV. Crazy.
+1, stellar academic profile
I mean... I wouldn’t list it personally, but he got 4 spring weeks with it on (I assume)
