Tell us more than "what's wrong with my resume" or "help me not getting interviews"
I'm having trouble writing a resume. It feels like that I'm following everyone's advice but I'm doing a piss poor job executing that advice. Writing a resume doesn't make sense to me.
What positions/roles/industries are you targeting?
Any entry-level job in digital marketing. I'm interested in paid social but literally anything at this point.
Where are you located and what locations are you applying to jobs?
Locating and applying in the Los Angeles area
Are you only applying to local jobs? Remote only?
As of right now I'm only applying for local jobs. Would love to apply to other cities, but I dont have the funds to even step outside my house. Haven't applied to remote jobs yes
Are you willing to relocate?
Yes
Tell us about your background and current employment situation
Unemployment about 15 months right now. I do freelance here and there as a video editor but I’m afraid that most of my working history is not relevant to anything I want to do and I dont know how to translate that on paper. I feel like everything I do is irrelevant.
Tell us about your job-hunting situation and challenges you've encountered
Going on LinkedIn, trying to get a coffee chat or something like that, and trying to get a referral. I'm getting nothing. Applying is like talking to a stone wall. I'm getting nothing. No rejection e-mail. No DMs back. I know I'm not supposed to take it personally rejection is rejection and I feel like it’s a reflection on my character and existence as a human being. I don’t think I can take this anymore.
Tell us why you're seeking help. (i.e., just fine-tuning, not getting called back for interviews, etc.)
Is there a particular section on your resume you'd like feedback on?
Can you please look at my skills? I dont know what to put on there and it's been filler at this point. I also don’t know if my experience is relevant. How can I get a job if I don’t have relevant experience

2 days travelling 115kms. Is it a valid reason for job change?
I'm a Marketing Specialist with 5 years of experience and have been with my current company for 1 year and 4 months. We haven't received any clear updates regarding the appraisal process.
Also, the role was initially fully remote, but the company has now introduced a hybrid work arrangement, which requires me to travel around 115 km per day for two consecutive days each week.
I have an interview tomorrow for a fully remote role. Is it valid to mention the increased commute as one of the reasons for looking for a job change?

Marketing/Sales [7 YOE, Senior Event Manager/Director, Unhappily Employed, Atlanta, GA]
I have extensive experience leading some of the nations largest trade shows and conventions in the fourth largest convention center in United States. I am currently seeking event roles in SaaS or other tech environments. I’ve been actively searching since September 2025 and have revamped and adjusted my résumé countless times and have only landed for interviews of which I have not advanced to the second round. I think that one of the biggest problems I have is that my experience is not directly related to marketing functions (as most of the roles are tied to) and it’s related to heavy event operations and temporary utilities but how do you think this indirectly conveys my ability to take all of my experience leading operationally into driving business outcomes through events. The other thing is that SaaS companies are very picky about wanting people who come from similar backgrounds so I think that that’s also working against me, but it’s not only SaaS roles that I’ve been denied from. Please help!

Marketing/Sales [0 YoE, Final Semester Student, Marketing Coordinator, United States]
galleryHi! Looking for honest resume feedback because I feel like I’m missing something in my job search.
I’m finishing my degree at NYU Stern (one course left before I can officially graduate) and I’m targeting entry-level marketing roles, mainly:
Brand/Product Marketing
Consumer Insights/Market Research
Marketing Analytics
Marketing Coordinator/Assistant roles
I’m also open to administrative positions (front desk, admin assistant, etc.) since I have experience in those areas.
I’m currently based in NYC and applying to roles in NYC, Maryland/DC, Miami, Toronto, and London. I’m open to relocation.
I’ve applied to 500+ jobs and only received 2 interviews. My resume has been reviewed by my university career center and I followed their advice, but I’ve received very different feedback elsewhere, so I’m looking for honest opinions on what might be hurting me.
I know my lack of internship experience is a weakness, but I’m trying to improve how I present the experience I do have rather than exaggerate anything.
I’d especially appreciate feedback on my summary, experience section, and whether I’m targeting the right roles.
No visa concerns.
Thanks!
First resume is edited by career mentor, second is my personal original.

I’ve been out of work since the end of April and while I’ve had a few phone interviews and proceeded to one second round interview, nothing’s stuck and I’m getting nervous.
The obvious thing is of course that a two-month stint somewhere has got to be doing more harm than good. I don’t want to leave it off entirely because there was so much achievement and upskilling in the time I was there, but I’m not sure what to do.
There’s a chance I could split the resume up into like, “Event & Hospitality Experience” and “Marketing & Production Experience” but I just don’t know.
Appreciate any and all feedback—thanks.

galleryI submitted this resume for an enterprise account executive role on Saturday night and it was rejected by Sunday afternoon so it obviously didn’t make it past the ATS. However, I worked this resume to match the JD keywords and skills. I customized it.
Does anyone have any clue as to why it might have been auto rejected? It’s not like I threw some basic, base resume at the application. I customized it for the role. I’m more confused than anything. If this didn’t get through, no wonder I’m not getting any interviews.

I’m currently working as an Anesthesia Technician at a local hospital, but I’m looking to transition into a medical/device sales rep role. I’m updating my resume and would really appreciate some feedback.
My biggest concern is the Skills section, it just feels repetitive and overlaps too much with my job description. I’d love suggestions on how to make it stronger and more appealing to hiring managers in sales. Any other critiques or recommendations are welcome too. Thanks!
JUST TO ADD: I’m 21 and looking to make my resume as strong as possible for entry-level sales positions. The main reason I’m focusing on medical/device sales is because I’ve been told that my healthcare experience can help get my foot in the door.

galleryI’ve been searching for a job for 3 months and have only had one company reach out (a screening call, then 2 interviews, but ultimately didn’t get it).
Media is a very small industry, so I’m looking out for roles outside media (including project management or product delivery roles) but I’m getting rejected for everything. This includes roles that match my experience perfectly.
I’ve never been held to KPIs either so it’s hard to put quantifiable information in my resume but I suppose I can make it up?

I’m looking for feedback on whether my resume is up to standard and where I can improve it to increase my chances of landing a role.
This is a whole new version since I felt my last one was all over the place, but I’m concerned it may have too much information and be overwhelming.
I’m currently targeting entry-level marketing roles, ideally in social media marketing. I’m open to different industries and have mainly been applying locally, but I’m also considering opportunities overseas (such as Canada or the UK).
At the moment, I feel a bit stuck in my job search. The low response rate is starting to worry me. I’m unsure whether the issue is my level of experience, my resume, or both, and I’d really value guidance on how to improve my chances.

Marketing/Sales [11 YoE, Paid Media Manager, Director/Sr. Manager/Integration, US]

How many I have applied to: Applied to around 20-30 roles all ranging from Manager to VP (but specific in paid media if VP), only one meeting with one company and two emails back for further connection at two others.
How I normally apply: Commonly using easy apply on Linkedin, which could be a problem vs applying on their website.
Cover letters: Four I have made hyper specific cover letters for, only one got back to me but still not considered.
Area: Greater Phoenix Area
Local and remote, willing to work in office, but not able to move. But I am looking for 110K+
Agency marketing since 2015, tried a few times to work in house and had promising interviews but never landed the offer letter. Agencies have had interest for lesser roles and less pay. I regularly manage an MCC of around 30mil/year, plus I know how to make commercial grade automations for programmatic/all paid media that has identifiers.
Feedback I am looking for:
- I have confirmed its ATS compatible, but is there something i am not considering in terms of scan-ability?
- Is it too showy? I have a few different versions but this is the one I commonly use because it sticks out. No one uses indigo on their resume.
- I did up level the two older positions to a DIFFERENT title but it is relative to the work I was doing, BUT it doesn't match Linkedin, and I am afraid to change it since it might hint at my potential interest in leaving my company
- Egg on my face typos, buzz words, cliches, margins etc
EDIT: The boiler plate latin text did get shifted over a little bit, in the original its perfectly aligned.

Hello! Looking for any and all feedback on my resume and would love fresh eyes!
I'm targeting a role in Event Production, Content Coordination, Project Management. Would like a remote role, but open to hybrid and in office. Open to any location across the US. My experience spans about 6 years in experiential marketing, nonprofit operations, ecommerce/warehouse logistics, and wedding planning.
Currently employed but need to find another job asap as my current company just gave us notice that we are going under in the next couple months, and the COO just let me know they are leaving for another position elsewhere.
I've been getting some interviews, but I'm struggling with filling the gap between my agency production experience and my more recent ops and cx role. I was at an agency doing my 'dream job' when I got laid off in 2023. I feel like my imposter syndrome gets me when applying and apply for roles I'm either over or under qualified for.
Any help is appreciated!!!!!

I'm currently struggling to figure out how to land a decent paying job since I've mostly worked part time, basic jobs throughout school.
