Post a link to a PDF, impossible to read a resume this way. First impressions are:
-Lose the objective and highlights -Move work experience to the top -Did you really only go to school for (less than) one year? In any case, fix your degree title
1) You don't need an objective 2) Start with experience (not employment history) & quantify your experiences/show their impact on your employer 3) Use action verbs 4) Create a section at the bottom for "Skills & Interests" 5) Include full GPA 6) Do not allow bullets to carry across more than two lines, one is preferable 7) You completed your degree in one year?
Others will probably help and add on to this...
Well, i did not finish my degree in one year. I used to go to school in uk and transferred to the USA, so 2 years in UK, 1 years in an Asian country and 1.5 yr in the states. I will try to post my resume in a better shape. Thank you guys.
The heading can simply be "work experience" "education" "awards" "extracurriculars" or "leadership activities" etc. You can tie education-awards together, work experience, leadership/volunteer, interests, if you are still in college. Also make sure to list out your diverse geographic exposure because you never know where your interviewer came from / went to school. And yeah, pdf/doc would be much better bcs you still have to edit your formatting, etc.
