It looks pretty, but I wonder if there is too much white space to it. I wonder if it can be crunched down to one page to look a bit fuller.

I like the Overview, but the bit about data entry sticks out a bit from the other experiences. The others point to management, but that one is not really a management role.

I know the two different Research Assistant gigs were separate, but would anyone reading the resume understand the difference? Could those be combined?

Do you have any accomplishments you could add in to each job to show some highlights of what you've done? Like the number of clients or volume of dollars for greatdaylending.com? Or the number of participants in the research assistant roles? Anything impressive to list for CVS?

Another thing to think about is to have a couple of resumes depending on the type of job you are applying for. Depending on what you are looking for, one might fit the bill.

Good luck!

i agree with some of greyguys comments

sometimes its good to put down what goals you want to have in the future as it shows some ambition like "in three years i want to travel to get a greater knowledge of other cultures"

maybe elaborate a little more on some of your skills
eg: HIPAA certification (i have no idea what that is)

i find if you put the skills you have for that particular job first then the ones that dont relate so much next it makes it look like you are super awesome at that skill

when i applied for a photography job(which i didnt get) i put down all my leet camera skills first rather than my skills as a laborer :P

you could fill out your education a little more as you did do go to high school and primary or maybe

oh and last thing always make something on your cv a little you like so people will go "oh that cv...that cv was awesome"

i cut out letters from magazines to make up my name (curse this being a artist crap

anyways i hope my ramblings and stealing of other peoples words will help you get the job

i believe you are awesome enough to get it and if not i would hire you :D

p.s if you ever want a sneaky look at my c.v let me know :)

i think it's well thought out and precise...
when i interview people i like the resume to be very straight forward and honest and this one seems to be just that...
the one thing is, it's a bit lengthy, in the sense that you should always try to keep it to one page if you can....
i know that seems impossible but when i was studying how to rewrite my resume that advice was given multiple times...
good job though! and good luck!
