So I'm going to take this out. And the other thing is most ats's will parse your resume. They will try to deduct the level of experience if you mention it. So it should say somewhere explicitly that you have plus 5 years of experience, 5 plus, and I don't see it.
This is also again a lot of text and professional kind of starts here, and there's no location, right? It says remote, even if you're remote, you need to mention that you're in the UK because they might think you're based in the third world country. You got to say remote, path, cis, London, UK. Wherever they're based. Why do we have a full driving license? Like how is this relevant to the job? That's let's do that.
And then we don't need this. Move it to the bottom. This goes to the bottom.
