Put your name at the top of your résumé in a large legible font. Keep it plain and simple. You want the recruiter to see this easily from a mile away. A happy recruiter is one who has minimum work to do. Making it easy for them is more likely to give you an interview.

Who Are You (1)

List all the relevant skills you want the recruiter to know you have. The more skills you list that match key technical words in the qualification section of the job description, the better your chances. Include an indication of your proficiency level. For example:<ul><li>Proficient - Languages that you are very familiar with, feel very comfortable using, and can interview with right now. </li><li>Familiar - Languages that you have used in the past but may not be as knowledgeable in currently, but can pick back up given time. </li></ul>

This section is important for those that do not have work experience.A personal project can be anything programming related, whether a python script, Java program, web page, mobile application, etc. It shows that you are dedicated to expanding your knowledge of computer science and that you are not afraid of putting in the extra work to do so. The other benefit of doing personal projects is that you inevitably gain the skills to work in the real world.

Personal Projects (5)

A résumé has to pass numerous stages before it gets in front of a hiring manager: It has to bypass online keyword filters, stand out to a recruiter, and meet a hiring manager's expectations.<ul><li>One-page résumé. On average, recruiters will view your application for less than 6 seconds. Keep it short and to the point.</li><li>Sections (Header, Education, Employment, Software, Personal Projects, Skills). Put the sections in order of importance from top to bottom.</li><li>Consistent layout + font per section. A consistent style enhances readability.</li></ul>
