Hi,
I'm a graduate mechanical engineer from South Asia. I have been trying to get a job in UK or US or even anywhere in Europe because I want to get out of my country. I have multiple internships and had student leadership positions but I have failed to even secure an interview. Kindly suggest what should i do? Any suggestions are welcome
Regards,

I would try reaching out to your network of friends and family to see if they know of any roles or internships to refer you to. Sometimes referrals can help you get your foot in the door somewhere.

How would you structure this resume?

Student startups & non-CS undergrad ->
masters in analytics & related part-time work ->
3 yoe DS in tier 2 tech company ops, accidental tech lead ->
burnt out/bored, quit, was lazy doing part time CS prereq classes for a year ->
breadth oriented masters in CS (finishing in spring)

Targeting PM roles cause people work comes easy to me (vs applied science/MLE coding) and ops cost center budgets suck. Doing formal CS just cause wanted to learn, fill in gaps.

I’m trying to fix up my resume to apply to other companies. It’s my first resume fix since college so I’m trying to see what to include/ take out.
1) Do I keep my internships? My leadership experiences in college?
2) How do I organize my engagement experiences - All combined bullets or separated by client?
3) How about my internal efforts? (I did 3 internal projects within the firm)
4) Education on top or bottom?

If anyone has a good resume example, please do share!
