Side margins should be around 0.8”.  \n• Font Size: 10. 5, 11, 11 . 5 or 12-point font preferred.  \n• Fonts: Garamond, Calibri, Cambria, and Georgia are preferable styles to Times New Roman. Use only one font style.  \n• Be consistent with format: If you use all capital letters for a section, do the same for all sections. If you write out dates using numbers instead of months, do that throughout. If you end bullet points with periods, make sure they all end that way.  \n• Use a condensed style of writing: Omit articles (“a,” “an,” “the”) .  \n• Have spaces in between sections: The employer needs to be able to read your resume easily.  \n• Use Microsoft Word to draft and convert to PDF to submit: Send with a clear title, e.g.“Resume, First and Last Name, Position Title”.  \n• Be factually accurate and error-free: Make sure you can prove that any results you include, including percentages, are a direct result of your work.  \n• Use key words from the position description when tailoring for a specific opportunity.  \n• Include your name, phone number, city and state, LinkedIn and GitHub addresses, and email.  \n• Use your judgment when including acronyms or abbreviations: Don’t assume that the reader will know what they stand for. If the job posting uses one then you can too.  \nDON’TS  \n• Use abbreviations unless necessary: If used, specify what they stand for before using-e.g. Natural Language Processing (NLP) .  \n• Minimize your results: Use strong action words and results-based accomplishments to highlight your achievements.  \n• Include a message about “References available upon request” on your resume: Hiring managers know to ask about your references if they need them.  \n• Use first person on your resume: Remove any use of “I,” “me,” “we,” “our,” or “my”.  \n• Use articles in your bullet points: No “the”,“a” or “an”.  \n• Use confidential data from former employers.  \n• Use graphics, photos, tables, or any odd formatting: Resumes should be clear and easy to read, either by an ATS (Applicant Tracking System) or a person.  \nFirst Name Last Name  \nWashington, [DC | XXX-XXX-XXXX | name@gmail.com | linkedin.com/in/X | github.com/X](DC | XXX-XXX-XXXX | name@gmail.com | linkedin.com/in/X | github.com/X)  \n\n| EDUCATION |\n| --- |\n| The George Washington University, Washington, DC\u003Cbr>Master of Science, Data Science (GPA 3.75) Expected Dec 2025\u003Cbr>• Student Associations: GW Data Science Student Association; GW Coders\u003Cbr>• Relevant Coursework: Data Mining, Data Warehousing\u003Cbr>University of Virginia Charlottesville, VA\u003Cbr>Bachelor of Science, Statistics (GPA 3.85) May 2024 |\n| PROJECT EXPERIENCE |\n| Prediction of Fake Reviews Jan – May 2024\u003Cbr>• Built automated system using Python to predict whether given review was likely to be from real user; led to reduction in “fake” reviews of 8% .\u003Cbr>Product Recommendations Model Sept – Nov 2023\u003Cbr>• Developed machine learning model to recommend restaurants to customers based on reservations history and browsing behavior. |\n| PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE |\n| CRAZY COMPANY LLC, Alexandria, VA\u003Cbr>Data Research Intern May – Aug 2024\u003Cbr>• Cleaned and prepared raw datasets for 4 distinct projects with competing deadlines; brought all results in ahead of schedule.\u003Cbr>• Monitored data quality for social media team, improving accuracy of engagement figures by\u003Cbr>15% .\u003Cbr>GW DEPARTMENT OF DATA SCIENCE, Washington, DC\u003Cbr>Machine Learning Teaching Assistant Jan – May 2024\u003Cbr>• Taught new graduate students various concepts in machine learning, explaining complex ideas through visualizations, lectures, and one-on-one advising sessions. |\n| TECHNOLOGY AND LANGUAGE SKILLS |\n\nProgramming Languages: Python, R, MATLAB, C/C++  \nData Management: SQL, MySQL, NoSQL(Dynamo, Redis, MongoDB), AWS, Google Clo","cbCaihO2r3HyQaNB","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihO2r3HyQaNB","pdf",424062,7,9,"English","# RESUME DO’S AND DON’TS\n## DO’S\n## DON’TS","[{\"question\":\"What resume formatting details does the guide recommend for a GW Data Science resume?\",\"answer\":\"Use 1–2 pages, set top and bottom margins to about 0.5”, side margins around 0.8”, and prefer 10.5–12 point fonts.
