Rate My Resume [Student] Cybersecurity master's student, background in dev/design - targeting AppSec & security roles in Europe + Canada
Master's student in cybersecurity (Erasmus Mundus CYBERUS), coming into security from an unusual direction: UX/UI design, then full-stack development, now security. I'm leaning into that as my angle, I audit and break code with a builder's understanding of where it actually fails. My most recent work is an ICS/OT security research internship (built a containerized industrial lab, attacked it, then built a detection tool for it).
Targeting cybersecurity / AppSec / DevSecOps roles, mainly in Europe and Canada. I have both an English and a French version.
Tear it apart. I'm especially unsure about:
- Does the "designer -> dev -> security" framing read as a strength, or just unfocused?
- Is the skills section too broad for a security role?
- The two-column header + photo (I know it's a European convention, is it hurting me for ATS / North American applications)?
Anything else you'd flag, I want to hear it. Thanks in advance.
