...also, based on your feedback I updated that image to make the smaller text bigger. I had noticed the same thing earlier but I didn't imagine it would bother my intended audience. Not saying that's you but at least I'm fixing the things people say they don't like.
As indication of skill it isn't much better either for me. I would expect any software dev to gobble this together given the number of available html presentation tools. If you want to show what you can do I'd rather see a bunch of github projects really. With readme properly documenting what it does and if possible a live example running somewhere.
This little thing could be in there if you really like. I would expect the Readme to state why you made it and what problem it solved or what you learned from it.
I clicked through once more for you to find your github in slide 4. My comment stays the same, there is nothing in there that helps me select you over people that present their content in an easier to consume format.
On the content. In some countries pictures must be able to blacked out by law (I don't agree, yet it is truth). Your experience bullets do not say what you actually did. Would add where your worked and some 1-2 lines description per bullet on what you made/did there. If you were freelancing add your clients. It helps us understand what size of companies/codebases you worked. What complexity etc. Your word cloud is indeed hard to decipher. Slide 4 I saw github, which is good.
The title says online resume. I assume the audience is recruitment. Recruiters take seconds to scan if they want to spend minutes. In addition most recruiters will not forward this to people like me to see if they like to invite. If that means we are not your audience your resume works. Be aware you are limiting your own options as you now no longer have the choice to say no yourself (we decided that for you).
I stay with my earlier comment. Best to reverse the whole thing. Send your "actual" resume as you called it and add your github repo there. We will find this here.
It's intentionally lightweight. I don't have a lot of public projects that I can link to. Plus it seems like the kind of thing where you shouldn't try too hard. So I left it at kind of the level we're pretty much anybody can do it.
The only types of jobs I'm looking for are part-time jobs and remote jobs. So that's my audience.
By the way if you looked at HANK and want to talk about that send me a message!
Anyways thank you for the critique. It'll be helpful to me.
