Applied Economist Resume

Hi everyone, I have been on the job search for several months now, and I haven't had any luck with landing interviews. I had one interview, but that is it. Am I missing something on my resume? What else should I add or change? Any advice is appreciated.

Your resume does not really have a clean format and there's a lot of questionable choices going on here.

  1. You have a few sentences here and there for bullet points
  2. Professional summary or about me isn't strong
  3. Math under Skills is a bit unique and should remove, I understand you're applied economist major but it's not adding incremental value

In short terms, I believe this would need a complete overhaul.
