Talk about your projects

Your resume should be crisp and bulleted.
Make your resume in such a format that should be legible and well constructed in grammar. Don’t try to make it lengthy, write it to the points. And emphasize on your project description and your responsibilities. All should be bulleted and not in paragraphs. Because nobody has so much time to read your resume thoroughly.
Take care of you Introduction part
When you are asked to tell me about yourself, explain yourself and exhibit your skills. This is the time you should sell your abilities. Avoid sentences like “If I would be given chance…” or “ I am passionate…”, etc. That actually doesn’t help you. Always be ready to introduce yourself in most impressive way. Talk about your real life experiences challenges and how you tackled them. Be confident yet calm.
Exhibit your online activities
Showcase your works on Blogs, GitHub, LinkedIn, etc. ask seniors for LinkedIn recommendations.. Also always be curious for new things in the IT market. Always keep yourself updated with
the latest technology news.
