Resume Review #002 — The Engineer Who Hid the Impact
A fictional mid-level software engineer resume gets marked up for vague impact, weak experience bullets, a noisy skills section, and the before/after rewrite that makes the work credible.

This fictional mid-level software engineer has the problem recruiters see constantly: the work is probably solid, but the resume makes us guess.
Swipe through the markup:
- The summary says "built scalable apps" and gives zero proof.
- The experience bullets hide the candidate behind "worked on," "responsible for," and "helped."
- The skills section sprays tools instead of showing the stack this person can actually defend.
- The rewrite turns vague duties into scope, ownership, and measurable results.
Recruiter read: if your bullet could describe anyone on the sprint team, it is not your bullet yet.
Fictional composite. No real candidate data.
