Keep it to one page Recruiters skim resumes quickly. Keep the strongest material visible on one page and trim older or less relevant entries before shrinking fonts or margins. 94% of the 17 resumes read in full are one page. ### 2. Lead with education while you are in school Put your school, degree, and graduation date at the top while you are a student. Once internships communicate more than coursework, move experience above education. Education precedes experience on 100% of the 15 resumes whose sections could be read. ### 3. Count internships, research, and projects as experience Internships, co-ops, research, and teaching-assistant roles count as experience. If you do not have them yet, use a projects section to show what you built, the tools you used, and the result. 94% of the 17 full-read resumes list at least one internship or co-op; a typical resume lists 3 roles, and 71% include projects. ### 4. Put a number in your bullet points Open each bullet with what you did and close with the result. Figures for users, revenue, latency, accuracy, or hours saved make results concrete and easy to scan. A typical resume has 17 bullets, and 53% contain a figure. ### 5. Name specific skills and tools List the languages, frameworks, and tools you have actually used. Group them by type and use the terminology from the job description. Skip soft skills; demonstrate them through your bullets. The leading skills are React.js (41%), C++ Programming (41%), JSON (41%), node.js (41%), and Ionic Framework (29%). A typical resume lists 20 skills. ## Top skills on resumes that passed Figma's screen | Skill | Share of resumes | Resumes | | --- | ---: | ---: | | React.js | 41% | 7 | | C++ Programming | 41% | 7 | | JSON | 41% | 7 | | node.js | 41% | 7 | | Ionic Framework | 29% | 5 | | Express JS | 29% | 5 | | Flashmob | 24% | 4 | | App Developer | 24% | 4 | | Cloud Computing | 24% | 4 | | Android | 24% | 4 | | Google Adsense | 24% | 4 | | Codeigniter | 18% | 3 | ## Figma Software Engineer resumes by the numbers Based on 17 resumes; updated Oct 16, 2025. | Measure | Result | | --- | --- | | Verified | 5 confirmed to have landed the interview | | Level | 76% intern, 18% new grad, 6% full-time | | Top schools | European University Institute, Florida State University, Harvard University | | Top skills | React.js, C++ Programming, JSON, node.js, Ionic Framework | | Also passed screening at | Google, Bloomberg, Amazon | | Length | 94% are one page | | Internships | 94% list at least one internship or co-op | | Roles listed | 3 on a typical resume | | Highest degree | Bachelor's, 82% | | Fields of study | Computer Science (9) | | Graduation years | 2026 (8), 2027 (4), 2024 (3) | ## FAQ ### Are these real Software Engineer resumes?
