Credit where credit is due and all that.

I'm looking to get a Private Sector Job where I actually have some influence in how things run.

I'm assuming the lack of response might mean I don't have that much to change...

I'd center the header.

The format can be adjusted to make this fit on one page. You have a lot of white space.

I don't like the 'Profile' section very much. I much prefer a couple sentences here to tell me an overview of your experience.

I'd go bullets instead of the boxes but I don't think it matters too much.

Not a fan of the experience section either. Your bullet points should be telling me quantifiable achievements that you have accomplished that helped the company not looking like a copy/paste from your duties. I use a couple sentences to describe the assigned duties and then a couple bullets to highlight key accomplishments.

I'd remove the training portion as I don't think it's very relevant.

I'm glad you like the format

I don't have enough time to look over the content today but I would do some work on the tables because there is a lot of unused space.

edit: Do you want the .docx version? It will clean up your resume a lot and you can just edit the content.

@Isud00d Yes please! I'll PM you my email

@Networker Thanks for the input! I'll take what you put to heart and see if I can't also take it down to one page.
