RESUME WRITING
Write a resume that actually gets read

Some do filter or rank by keyword match, which is why matching the posting's language matters — but a clean, well-tailored resume is the best defense either way.
No — include it only if it's a genuine strength for the role you're applying to.
No — a well-documented project with a clear impact bullet can carry as much weight as a short internship.
