1.Shorten first sentence; be concise.
2.Never use your name nor personal pronouns. ex. "Hands-on executive officer known for strategic and focused approach, with extensive accolades for limiting risk, creating lean teams, and establishing creative strategies for optimizing internal operations, financial returns, external customer service, and output."
3.I would stress that I were a better teacher than student if anything, they want to learn from you, not necessarily the other way around.
4.Be more specific. Too many details are generalized in this summary. I'd rather have a few amazing points than many "meh" points. Summary should include: core strengths & skill set, relevant past/key functions to role, accomplishments you want to repeat in the new role, etc. Reading this summary I feel like I'd be giving a lot more to you than you are to me. Sell yourself better, I wouldn't bother looking at the rest of the resume if the first few sentences throw me off of who you really are.
5.For that last sentence, "mutual growth" is a good thing, but "the company" is not. Don't make it feel vague. Tailor it to the job you're applying to. Make the effort to make the company know you're interested in specifically them.
1.First thing I notice are the subsection titles: Education, Work and Volunteer Experience, etc. Place them where the section STARTS, not in the middle of the section. This kind of formatting can be very confusing for someone reading through, especially since there is no clear divider between the different sections. For example, looking at your resume they might think that the education section starts at "Honors Student and Graduated with......" instead of "Rotman's Commerce Management Specialist". Place the section titles at ABOVE the relevant information, so that they PRECEED and encompass what they're supposed to.
2.Reorganize your Education section. ex.
•Bilingual Program (French & English)
•Expected Date of Completion: 2017
Bold the University name. Put timeframe after on the same line. List degree/program on next line, make it stand out but not as much as the university. List any relevant program information in following line. Since you're still in school list the expected date of completion in the last line. Don't include the location. ex Oshawa, Ontario
3.Work and Volunteer experience. Just put "Experience".
4.Don't separate the company name and job titles. Makes it harder for the reader to associate them. Put the job title and company name in the same paragraph, job title on top. List relevant points underneath. Format them the same way as described for the education section.
5.If you can only list 2 previous experiences, list more points under each of them, fill your page up a bit more. Make up for you lack of experience by showcasing your mastery in the experiences you did have. Your shift manager/cashier position seems extremely lackluster. Keep your points nice and short, these are points not sentences (ex. 2nd point in math and reading tutor: split that up). Describe everything in DETAIL. Ex. from a lifeguard resume:
•Taught children between the ages of 3-17. Imparted lessons ranging from introductory swimming skills to lifesaving procedures
•Created weekly lesson plans and was responsible for developing and implementing new teaching strategies for lesson blocks
•Strong multitasking abilities, able to supervise upwards of 30 swimmers independently
•Able to perform in high-stress situations and work well in team-centric environments during rescues
6.Remove or combine some of your points in Key Skills, you have too many (makes your experience section look smaller in comparison). Also, as with the rest of your resume, most of these points are amazingly non-specific, anyone can put these. Honestly, I would toss this resume at this point if I even managed to get this far down. These generic points do more harm than good. What's so unique about you? ex. You live in Canada, so can you speak any french? Then list that. "Knowledge of" points is are fine.
7.Combine "Key Skills" and "Knowledge of" sections, really no need to have them differentiated like that. "Knowledge of" isn't a very convincing name either.
8.Interests and Hobbies: NO. NAME. OR. PERSONAL. PRONOUNS. Don't use "also" or "as well as". Put the title as either "Interests: or "Hobbies". This section is tiny, put a short title.
9.References: Don't even include this section. The employers KNOW that they can be provided upon request. If you really want to still include it, don't make it as an entire section with a title like that.
1.Don't forget to include all your contact information,name, etc. at the top. I assume you didn't include it for anonymity but mentioning it just in case.
2.Keep your sections clearly distinct from each other.
3.Work on overall formatting, make use of the entire page. It's not nice to look at a lot of blank space, nor is it good to have too much clutter. Fix your alignment as well, the section titles on the left don't all line up together, keep the line consistent. ex. "Knowledge of" and "Interests and Hobbies" stick out further than the rest.
4.Fonts. Change them. Do some research into serif/non-serif fonts and which should be used where. Choose a set to your liking, but make sure they are easy on the eyes for the reader.
5.Font SIZE + bolding, etc. Use varying font sizes for titles, positions, etc. There's too much that looks all the same. There needs to be some form of CONTRAST so that the things that you want to emphasize stand out. Ex. Try a pattern of 3 different font sizes: 16 + bold + underlined for titles, 14 underlined for positions/sub-titles, 12 for body text.
6.Don't capitalize so many words. It makes things harder to read for no reason. ex. Experienced with Project Leadership, Skilled with Proper Allocation of Tasks to Allow for Maximum Efficiency > Experienced with project leadership, skilled with proper allocation of tasks to allow for maximum efficiency. Seriously. Don't do it. (btw don't include this point, or rephrase it with detail. it's pretty bland and bad).
Hope this helped. Go over everything and I'll take another look if you want.
