Senior - Kill The Resume, Tell me the chances
So I'm a Senior at a target graduating a semester early. I'm hoping to go in to S&T but I'm really open to anything in this market. I feel like I have pretty good experience. I'm hoping you guys can aid me in perfecting my resume. I've gotten 2 interviews so far with this one, but let me know if there is anything else.
Main Concerns: 1. Do I really need that profile section? I feel like it just sounds stupid, but I'm not sure if I should keep it or how I could tweak/re-word it. I want to get across that I'm not another faceless brainiac, and that I can work hard, but also am a very social and capable human being.
I didn't list my GPA because I've transferred and my target school GPA is low (2.5-3.0) range. My cumulative for all of college is 3.0 but I feel like it is still too low to put.
The format of my resume is very different. I'm trying to differentiate myself. I've talked to a lot of people and have gotten some great feedback about the readability of my resume. It helped me stand out and my boss at my current internship said it actually led to them interviewing me over the 350 other applicants...If you guys think its REALLY ridiculous or have something that might change it a bit please let me know.
What are my chances of landing a gig do you think?

I'm a pretty heavy contributor on WSO (this is a ghost account) and appreciate all the help and will be sure to continue reviewing others resumes in return.
Delete the profile section - it's just generic descriptions of characteristics without any specifics to you.
Appreciate the feedback...I've removed it. Does anybody else have anything to say in regards to what they think my chances are?
The computer lab tech position is pretty irrelevant and a waste of space. Fix your second row alignment for your bullets. Other Skills should be Interests
I guess I have it to show that I've done some work with computers and that I've held a consistent job for 2 years, while also interning.
I've fixed the alignment, appreciate that.
In regards to experience, what does anyone think of my chances at S&T or something else? I'm nervous that I'm not quanty enough and don't know enough of that yet. Since I was a transfer there wasn't much room for moving around classes to take things outside of my major. I'm confident I can learn through a training program but I'm a typical senior, about to graduate, who doesn't have a job, freaking out.
