It’s not a great resume and it’s not really their fault. There isn’t much experience so it’s going to be an entry level vertical move. As others pointed out, stick it out a year or 2 and get good experience that opens up more opportunities elsewhere.

like

1.Narrow down internship experience and add more about associate experience and roles.
2. Instead of saying "member of" make it a verb and describe what you did. Attended, prepared, developed...
3. Remove skills section except for language. Just know that they may need to use them if the job requires it.

Awesome 👍

I like to add hand drawn art to complement all the words. Just a thought

Sounds like this guy doesn't have a lot of experience or gal sorry. Any time you beep up your resume with the crap of the bottom tells me circular file.

You mean the skills section?

Why not wait for promo? It’s literally these few months

Realistically they got PIP’d or let go

According to my resume and the great hits that I get off of it, well not in this market it's too much , but I had my resume done by a professional company so I may not know what I'm talking about but doesn't seem like a lot of work experience and it's not linear enough I think, I don't freaking know just trying to help. Whenever your resume says assisted and prepared but not initiated, implemented or managed it means you were just a participant, just my words I don't know, I could be so wrong. Wishing you the best!!

Good grief you have no confidence in your resume knowledge. Resume rule #1: fake it till you make it!

Just out of curiosity, have you ever started a new job and thought what the hell am I getting myself into?!?
If it was the wrong fit how long did you grin and bear it? 6 months / 1 year / longer?
Did it get better with time or worse? (For instance just a case of lack of know-how)
If you left did you find securing a new job difficult due to only being there for so little time?

Fishbowlers... I need some advice. I’ve been in industry for two years and want to go back into consulting. I have an opportunity to work in same field at Capco or go back to pwc for an (c’ntd)..

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.
