Tell me how to improve the resume I've attached along with the changes to be made
Claude
Here are the suggested improvements for your resume: Professional Summary Improvement: Current: "Film production professional with experience supporting creative talent and managing industry relationships..." Better: "Detail-oriented film production professional with proven experience in art direction, production coordination, and talent management across feature films, commercials, and festivals. Demonstrated success in managing complex logistics, creative problem-solving, and delivering projects under pressure." Work Experience Section: Put dates on the right side for better visual organization For Guerilla Wanderers, prioritize the most relevant achievements first: Lead with coordinating media promotion for 7 feature premieres Follow with production coordination responsibilities Remove or de-emphasize the podcast website creation since it's less relevant for production roles The CRM/email marketing point could be removed unless specifically relevant D.A.L.I. Experience: Great achievement with the painting, but connect it more directly to production skills: Better: "Demonstrated exceptional problem-solving by creating a 12x3 ft. Dali-inspired painting within 2 hours to resolve an urgent set design crisis, ensuring uninterrupted production schedule" Freelance Roles: Give these more prominence since they're directly relevant Create a separate section for these with brief bullet points about key responsibilities List them chronologically with dates Skills Section: Reorganize into clear categories: Production Skills (prioritize these) Technical Skills Administrative Skills Add specific production software if you've used any (like Movie Magic, Final Draft) Additional Suggestions: Consider adding a "Key Projects" section highlighting your most impressive film/commercial work Include any relevant training or certifications If you have quantifiable achievements (budget managed, team size, project timelines met), add those numbers Consider removing or condensing the Tutor role unless the skills are directly transferable For Ubuntu Festival, emphasize production-related responsibilities more than general event management Format Improvements: Use consistent bullet point style Ensure consistent spacing Make sure all dates align properly Consider using bold for key achievements or skills Would you like me to elaborate on any of these points or help you rework specific sections?
