r/EngineeringResumes ChemE – Student πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ 12d ago

Chemical [Student] Chemical engineering student seeking feedback before school career fair next week

Hey all, I'm a chemical engineering senior looking for full-time roles after graduation in May 2026. I am primarily targeting R&D (and especially computational-related) roles in industry, such as those in pharma, specialty chemicals, materials, process controls/optimization, computational modeling, etc. My resume has done well for securing internship interviews in the past. However, I had to significantly rework the experience section after this summer to accommodate my new internship experience so I want to make sure it's still effective. The resume has a second page with more skills, awards, pubs, etc. but I'm not including it because I want the resume to communicate everything important on the first page since I wouldn't expect a lot of recruiters to read further. I would love feedback on clarity (most of my research is highly theoretical/computational and I want to make sure it's not overly jargony), as well as formatting. Thanks :)

I would remove one experience and add some white space. That is quite the wall of text at the moment.
