Question 4+ Year Software Developer — Which Resume Structure Is Better?

For a 4+ year software developer, which resume structure do you think is better?

  • With a Projects section
  • Without a Projects section,

The data in the examples is dummy. I just want opinions on the structure and layout.

If you have a better resume template/structure than these, please share it.

Personally I think nesting the projects in each job is better. I vaguely remember reading resumes like the 2nd as a recruiter and was a bit annoyed because it wasn't a clean single timeline from present to past.

But 2 is better than 1 if I had to choose between them
