Tech/Startup Clean Template — Frequently Asked Questions

What do startup recruiters look for in a resume?

Speed of understanding your role and impact. Startup recruiters want to immediately see: what you built, what scale it reached, and what you directly owned. Quantify everything — users, revenue, uptime, deployment frequency, team size.

Should I include side projects on a startup resume?

Absolutely. Side projects, open-source contributions, and hackathon wins are highly valued at startups as evidence of self-motivation, curiosity, and hands-on technical ability. Dedicate a full projects section to them.

Is a one-page resume required for startup applications?

Startups generally prefer concise resumes, but quality beats brevity. One strong page is better than two diluted pages. If you have 8+ years of relevant experience, two pages are fine.
