And when I try I get not enough privilege.
You cannot upload an image until you have selected a category. Once you have a category selected, when you upload an image it should upload it to the imgur account linked to ML.

You best bet is to put it on your Google Drive and allow public access.

Thanks. I just made it public on Google Drive. Let me know if you can see it and please make suggestions on how to fix.

You'd have to provide a link for us to see it.

First thing I see (I read bottom up on resumes) is never, ever include your high school in education. Not even if you are currently a high school student.
-
Second high level thing - way too much sprawl. One page max given the amount of details on there.
-
Formatting will be important. Look at this bit, so much "formatting" has gone into way too little info. It looks really weird when you have three lines of header leading up to a single bullet point.
-
@scottalanmiller How should it be formatted? So I can fix?
-
If it were me, I would spell out which OS versions. Windows OS's could mean XP and Server 2003, which is essentially useless. Linux OS's could mean almost anything.
-
Also, is patient portal a skill?
-
Okay, from the top, the skills section is all over the place:
Look at that first line... all kinds of really important skills just mashed together, plurals incorrect, unneeded words, etc. Windows. Saying OS is redundant and filler. And no plural ever has an apostrophe.
Second line isn't a skill, it's part of our education, and why do we care?
Third and forth line are one time installs, that's so important that they are your skills?
Look at the things in your skills list, these are the things someone would hire you based on. From reading this, I feel like I'd only want to look at your resume further if I wanted to hire someone to run my Fax Press system and ownCloud.
And you have ownCloud and OpenFire misspelled. Never misspell your skills! It looks like you are just hearing about them for the first time as you write them on your resume.

Or no servers at all. Just Windows 98 and XP.

Android phones and Raspian.

One thing, I would not make it a category, I'd make it a job. The header of military for a single entry seems wrong. Then that single entry has just one bullet point. It looks like you started filing it in and forgot to come back to it. Just add it on as your last (or first, you know... at the bottom) job.
Maybe find a way to have two bullet points.
-
Formatting should always be consistent and clear. Your spacing between topics is all over the place. And tabs are all over the place. Each entry should be in identical formats. Think about making an office report, make this look like one you'd want to turn in.
-
See how "Employment" is an entry just like each job? And the state and the date move around in every entry. And the job title is not in a consistent spot. And the line after the title is sometimes a bullet and sometimes a space.
No need for months, IMHO. I take those out, no one cares that much.

Should a MOOC be on a resume under Education?
-
The forth job has a completely unique format to it as well.

What is a MOOC?
