Looks great, even though its 2 pages long, since you have lots of experience. Top 1% on kaggle is seriously impressive though

I see a few grammatical errors, "i". The "Subnero" link is broken by the way, might want to point it to the correct spot. If you use google link, I would suggest doing analytics tracking to see how many times its clicked (this gives you a good indication fo how many people read your resume)

I imagine this is for datascience jobs, the things that stood out to me the most were

- youtube links to actual talks is very good

- 1% kaggle is really hard to get

- actual publications

otherwise it looks perfectly fine. Make sure the PDF is OCR readable, and make sure there is an accompaning .docx format as well

Thank you so much, I appreciate it!

>> I see a few grammatical errors, "i"

Do you mean I'm using small-letter "i" somewhere? I triple-checked, but can't seem to find that anywhere?

>> If you use google link, I would suggest doing analytics tracking to see how many times its clicked

That's a great idea!

>> The "Subnero" link is broken by the way

Thanks for catching that!

>> Make sure the PDF is OCR readable, and make sure there is an accompaning .docx format as well

I suspect its not OCR readable, and there is no .docx version either - the disadvantages of making your resume with Latex!

Its on the http://vanishingradient.net/ (now defunct), with the small "i"

ah okay you made it in latex. I always run my PDF's through Adobe Acrobat Pro X for OCR recognition. CTRL+F some words on there to see if it works. You want to ensure if it is OCR because it's going to be scraped for content through HR processors. That's why I recommended .docx format as well, granted that also let's headhunters delete your email address.

Pandoc has a latex to pdf converter, I imagine this is what you used

Also, you might want to change the resume name a bit differently. You wrote down "shankar_resume_cto.pdf". You might not be applying to a CTO position and might be taken as a threat to someone's existing CTO position.

By the way, you should really link your kaggle profile on there if you really are in the top 1%. Gives recruiters no doubt that you are actually what you say you are.

Ah - thanks, its amazing how I tend to become "blind" to errors in my own writing!

Great point about the "cto" suffix! I once applied for a CTO position, and saved the tailored version of my resume at that time with a "cto" suffix. Since then I have been using modified versions of that resume, but I must get rid of the suffix now.

I held the top 1% rank in 2014. I'm not active on Kaggle anymore. They have since changed the way they calculate rankings, and you lose your rank if you don't stay active. As a result, while I still have my Kaggle profile, its now unranked. I figure its easier to explain this when asked, rather than link to a profile page that seems to contradict the claimed achievement.

if that's the case then omitting the link would make more sense.

Resume looks perfectly fine though,I didn't checkout your linkedin profile under your username but I assume it looks similar
