Little context -

Been on a serious job search for about 4 months. I’m started to get a little stressed. At times, I’ve had some decent progress. A couple of zoom/phone calls here and there but ultimately leading to nowhere. I’ve been ghosted on several after what I thought were terrific initial interviews. However, I’ve applied to hundreds with zero contact.

I left my previous job in Apr. 2021 to relocate to Dallas. (My girlfriend was right - moving to her city made far more sense than her moving to mine). I had some rental properties I was able to sell and have been living off that plus stock/crypto profits. So I spent a few months enjoying life/moving. Financially, I’m okay but I’m approaching the end of those funds. I’ve been doing a decent amount of freelancing lately to have spending money - Digital marketing and small home construction and repair. The company I own is a simple LLC that I used to purchase my rental properties, but have been working under it as a freelancer.

I believe my resume is the biggest obstacle I face. I do tailor it to the job description a little, but it doesn’t deviate much from the one posted here.

Here are my biggest questions:

1. How is my format. Especially relating to “professional experience” and “personal experience”

2. Is this the correct way to label my work experience gap

3. I’ve used a resume format before where I separated my two roles “associate marketing director/event director”. Do I keep those lumped together or separate them

4. I suck at bullet points. What’s the best way to do this

5. Roast it. Tear it apart. Tell me what I’m doing wrong. I need a job.

Roles I’m looking for is anything marketing related. Open to really anything, I am not set on marketing.

Thanks to all for the help.
