Please Review My Resume. 300+ Applications, only 2 interviews..

Hi everyone, I am currently an MSECE international student at Purdue.

Despite 300+ applications, I have only handed 3 interviews but haven't secured an offer yet. I have previous experience as data engineer/PM at TSMC but I am trying to pivot fully into a VLSI design roles. If I don't secure a summer job/intern, I will soon ran out of money and unable to graduate.

I really need help on my resume as I am getting rejected everywhere. I have three specific questions in mind

  • Are my projects described with enough technical depth?
  • Is my resume failing ATS?
  • Are my experience irrelevant to the VLSI role?

Please be brutally honest, this would made my day. Thank you so much for your time!!!
