1. What can the writer do to make the resume better tailored to the specific job being applied for?
The resume is really well written, and I think that there are a lot of things in your resume that support the objective. The only thing I could say is that you could consider writing about a skill you have that supports the objective as well.
2. Is the layout and design pleasing to the eye? Make at least one suggestion for improving it.
The layout and design is very good, the only area of improvement would be to align the “Activities and Honors” subtitle with the “Work Experience” subtitle. The “Activities and Honors” would look a lot better if it is aligned to the right.
3. Does the resume fit comfortably within the page (as opposed to being squished in or stretched out)? What can the writer do to improve it?
The resume seems a little bit squished into the page, but I didn’t mind at all while reading it. If you can, try to give the page more margins in the top and bottom.
4. Is it easily readable (no confusing fonts, clearly marked sections)? What improvements can be made?
Yes. The resume is extremely well organized; I especially like the use of bold, capital letters and italics. It is very easy to follow and to read.
5. Does it use typography (including headers and bold and italics) appropriately and effectively?
Yes. You did a good job when using italics, but you should consider using a different separator (probably a semicolon instead of a comma) after writing the company name, to differentiate it with its location. The headers are really well done.
6. Is the most important information located on the left side of the page and near the top whenever possible? Identify at least one part that could be better placed.
All of the important information is placed in the left side as well as near the top when possible. As mentioned before, the only thing that could be better placed is the activities and honors section, which could make the resume look better if placed at the left margin.
7. Does the content of the resume support the objective (if there is one)? Explain.
Yes. There is a lot of material like the education (bio-chemistry major) and the work experience that support the objective. Besides this, you did a good job by highlighting the key words in the objective and doing the same thing with some of the words in the content. This way, you can see how the objective is directly supported.
8. Is the resume too short? Where can it elaborate? Job skills? Responsibilities? Education?
The resume is not short at all; I think that you did a very good job elaborating all of the key points, especially the work experiences.
9. Is material sequenced in order of importance and relevance?
Yes, but the only thing I would change is to put your computer skills at the end. The work experiences and activities and honors sections have more importance than the computer skills.
10. Do bulleted items begin with action verbs? Are list items ordered in terms of importance?
Yes. There are some points like “prepare media” where you probably meant “prepared media”. You have to watch out for these small spelling mistakes, it can make a huge difference with the competition.
11. Does the resume avoid generalities and focus on specific information and professional terminology?
Throughout the resume you did a very good job at specifying what you did at your job experiences; you also did well when explaining that you worked with technology such as the “UV-Vis spectrometer”.
12. Does the resume pass the Quadrant, Column, Squint, and Distance tests? Explain how the author might make improvements based on your test results.
The resume passes the test really well. It catches your attention, it seems elaborate and it fits the page really well. The only areas of improvements are the ones I mentioned earlier in this comment.
13. What other observations can you make about the resume?
The only thing left to say is that you did a very good job since you have very little details to edit. Your resume definitely catches attention.
1. What can the writer do to make the resume better tailored to the specific job being applied for?
Your objective states clearly that you want an internship in the medical device company. It’s specific and not too wordy. Good job.
2. Is the layout and design pleasing to the eye? Make at least one suggestion for improving it.
The layout is nice. You are consistent with headings except for the activities and honors. Maybe try to align it to the far left just like the other headings. I really like the way you put your name at the top with the lines. I suggest you might want to put your address in a more traditional, multi-line design.
3. Does the resume fit comfortably within the page (as opposed to being squished in or stretched out)? What can the writer do to improve it?
The resume does fit within a page. I think that it is very well written and has good detail. Maybe try to make the related courses more balanced on the page. I think that doing so would make it a little bit easier to read.
4. Is it easily readable (no confusing fonts, clearly marked sections)? What improvements can be made?
Like I said before it is very consistent except for the slight alignment problem with activities and honors. Maybe try to fix the related courses to balance out the page a little bit.
5. Does it use typography (including headers and bold and italics) appropriately and effectively?
Your resume does a good job being consistent with headings. The bold and caps brings attention to each section.
6. Is the most important information located on the left side of the page and near the top whenever possible? Identify at least one part that could be better placed.
The important sections are bolded. My suggestion is to left align activities and honors as well. This would help it be more consistent and easier to read. Otherwise, the important information is appropriately placed.
7. Does the content of the resume support the objective (if there is one)? Explain.
The content supports your objective. I like how you connected your previous work experience and showed how it is relevant to a medical company.
8. Is the resume too short? Where can it elaborate? Job skills? Responsibilities? Education?
The resume is a good length. Maybe put more detail on your communication skills as you stated in your objective.
9. Is material sequenced in order of importance and relevance?
The material is in a good order.
10. Do bulleted items begin with action verbs? Are list items ordered in terms of importance?
The bulleted items begin with action verbs. My suggestion is to make them in the same tense (i.e. worked, prepared, monitored under work experience instead of worked, prepare, monitored).
11. Does the resume avoid generalities and focus on specific information and professional terminology?
The resume gives good details, especially about your work experience.
12. Does the resume pass the Quadrant, Column, Squint, and Distance tests? Explain how the author might make improvements based on your test results.
The resume evenly distributes information. The font size is very easy to read. I think that maybe balancing the related courses would improve your resume a little. From farther away, the resume looks very neat.
13. What other observations can you make about the resume?
The resume is very nice. Good job connecting work experience to the desired position.
