      I'm getting ready to apply to a new company with a much better position.

      Here is my resume prior to sending this out to them .

      could you read through it and tell me what you think before I send this in to the hiring manager?

      I dislike using the phrase "personal lab" on the resume. It's great to test things in a lab and talk about that during the interview, but on your resume you should just list it as experience. Then if they ask about it in interviews you can tell them how you did it in your lab.

      I also feel like it's scatter brained, and the order makes no sense. Put what you care to show off to your new job first on that list. If you put network devices as your first point, they are going to assume (rightly so) that it's your strongest topic. So you better know it inside and out.

          Do you really want to highlight hardware installation as your main qualification?

                  @WrCombs just a nagging question by why doesn't your current employer have a redirect from http://rdspos.com to https://rdspos.com

                  Seems insane to leave the unsecured connection there.

                    Skills used I don't think is accurate. It might make more sense to say "Systems used" or "Operating Systems Supported"

                      Bullet points should never end in a period mark. Example below


                      Proficiency with operating systems listed below

                      • Windows Server 2016, 2012 (R2), 2008
                      • Windows 10, 8.1, 8 and 7
                      • Mac OSX High Sierra

                        Also bullet points should be concise, not full sentences. See the above example. Use the section descriptor to explain the bullet list if you must.

                            Bullets should be strong statements, not just list OS versions

                              Good for you, you've never seen a bullet point list. If you're writing complete sentences as bullet points you're doing something wrong.

                                Where is your evidence to back up your claim that bullet points should never be full sentences or longer sentence fragments and should never end with a period? I have found lots that say otherwise, however.

                                            Also bullet points should be concise, not full sentences. See the above example. Use the section descriptor to explain the bullet list if you must.

                                            I disagree

                                            Good for you, you've never seen a bullet point list. If you're writing complete sentences as bullet points you're doing something wrong.

                                            Where is your evidence to back up your claim that bullet points should never be full sentences or longer sentence fragments and should never end with a period? I have found lots that say otherwise, however.

                                            Show me the proof you have that bulleted listed should exclusively be sentences.

                                            Show me the proof you have to back up your claim that bullet points should only be one word

                                            I never said ONE Word, I said concise. Learn to read dipshit.

                                            Exactly my point. So stop with that bullshit. I will not fall into your fallacy trap.

                                            You're a moron who's trying to start an argument
