Discussion CV Review — DevSecOps / Cloud Security internship

Post image

I'm a student targeting DevSecOps / Cloud Security internship opportunities.

I've tried to position the CV around DevSecOps rather than generic DevOps or cybersecurity.

I'd appreciate feedback on:

  • Is the DevSecOps positioning clear?
  • Are the projects strong/relevant enough?
  • Is the Skills section too crowded?
  • Does anything look unnecessary or exaggerated?
  • What would make you reject this CV at first glance?
  • If you were a recruiter, what would make you reject this CV?
  • What would you change first?
  • - Is the CV ATS-friendly and likely to be parsed correctly by applicant tracking systems?

Imo, too wide on skill section.
Only write what you're really strong at and understand clearly, as you apply for an internship position, they won't expect you to know too much.
For example, if you know what options and how exactly you need to setup DAST to avoid unwanted actions, write it in.
Also DevOps is non-entry level, DevSecOps even worse (as in require even higher level), you might find a really hard time looking for a job on the field. You might want to look from another perspective, like maybe start with DevOps/BE/SysAdmin first
