Here's mine. It's a little bit outdated, I've just graduated yesterday and learned a few new skills that aren't listed. I also have a portfolio.

I Welcome any feedback! 😁.

Hi Moutaman! I would switch the sections:

  • work history
  • skills
  • everything else

Now that you've graduated probably you don't need the intro.

I would expand on what you're working on now that you're freelancing.

You can't have years of work experience by definition but you can tell what you're doing and learning.

Don't lose your focus and drive, that comes out a lot from your CV.

As others have suggested up in the comments, remember to tailor your CV towards who's the employer. If your strenghts are PHP and Node, maybe lose the "experienced in Java", especially if you're not that interested in doing that. Your knowledge of Android (use upper case for the first letter) development is already a good bonus. I would also remove the first two core skills, because they are implied by the CV

If you can fit everything in 2 pages instead of 3 it's even better!

Good luck
