[7 YoE, Unemployed, Software Developer System Admin, United States]
I have been employed by the DoD and left to finish school last year.
Now that I have my bachelor's, I have been applying to several jobs in the commercial sector with no response. I either get nothing or an auto-generated "you were not selected" email.
I did have TopStackResume build my resume, and on most ATS reviewing sites, it gets a score of 85-95. Despite this, I have not been getting any interviews.
I am worried that my time with the DoD is now scaring employers off, and I wonder if I should just remove it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!
