Okay, I'm attaching my revision of my resume. I think I've done my best to integrate everyone's (much appreciated) advice. I completely removed the "wall of hyphen bullets" and created three indent levels. I'd love to get some more feedback: How is the spacing on the actuarial exams? I like it better without the graphical bullets, what do you think? Hanging indent - good or bad? I thought it helped break up that "wall" feeling. What should I eliminate - perhaps some of the bullets under Rocksolid Builders, or part of the internship, or the whole music video show? Is there a better way to plug in my SAT score? I scoured this forum, but only found DTNF's joking suggestion to put it under Other Interesting Facts about Me. Perhaps I could put it under the first heading, calling it "Actuarial and Other Relevant Exams"? Any other way to plug my math background? I could say that my math GPA was 4.00, but it's a small sample size, and they were pre-NYU (SUPA Calculus courses taken during high school for college credit). Moreover, my overall GPA was only 2.92, major GPA 3.19, final semester 3.15. Obviously I did some other interesting things that sacrificed my college work (probably ill-advisedly), but you'd probably defer the whole topic of GPA until the interview, right?

![]() It looks like you forgot to redact personal information.
The right-aligned name is distracting. I would go for something less unusual. You're going onto the second page. |

![]() Yeah, a couple of other people thought that, too. It's actually a fake name & address & fake employer names. I guess I need to pick something more obviously fake next time.

Thanks very much, knifoon120 & andperseandy for taking the time to look at & critique it! P.S. Bullets and quotes appear to not play nicely together. |

![]() Okay, here is my final draft. For me, it has been quite a journey and I really appreciate everyone's help.
I'll hopefully be emailing this to a chief actuary tomorrow, so I welcome any needed tweaks. Thanks again. |
