Here is my honest HR assessment of your resume, speaking as a hospital HR professional reviewing candidates for a Neurophysiologist/Neurodiagnostics role:
Resume Review - Sabaridhanush
Overall Rating: 6.5 / 10
STRENGTHS
1. Highly Specialized Skill Set
Your technical skills are directly relevant and impressive for the field - EEG, EMG, NCV/NCS, Evoked Potentials (VEP, BAER, SSEP), IONM, and Polysomnography all in one candidate is a strong package. Most hospitals struggle to find someone covering both sleep studies and IONM.
2. Hands-On Clinical Training
Nearly 5 years (September 2021 - May 2026) at a reputed institution like KMCH, Coimbatore is a significant plus. It tells me you have real floor experience, not just classroom theory.
3. Relevant Degree
B.Sc. Neuroelectrophysiology from KMCH (2026) is directly aligned with the role - no mismatch between qualification and target job.
4. Conference Participation
Three conferences (NEUROPHILIA, TRAUMA, ECON Sleep Medicine) across different years shows you are staying engaged with the field. That matters.
AREAS NEEDING IMPROVEMENT
1. "Internship" Confusion (Major Issue)
The experience section says "INTERNSHIP" as the heading but lists 5 years of work. As an HR reviewer, this immediately raises questions:
- Were you an intern the entire time, or did your role evolve?
- Did you receive a stipend, salary, or was it purely training?
- Were you a registered employee of KMCH?
Fix: Relabel this clearly. If it was clinical training as part of your B.Sc. program, say "Clinical Training - B.Sc. Program." If you held a paid role at any point, separate those out.
2. No Quantifiable Achievements
Your responsibilities are listed as duties, not accomplishments. HR and hiring managers want to see numbers:
- How many EEGs did you perform per week/month?
- How many IONM surgeries did you assist in?
- Any reduction in procedural errors, patient complaints resolved, etc.?
Fix: Add at least 2-3 metrics. Example: "Performed 200+ EEG studies over the training period" or "Assisted in 50+ neurosurgical IONM cases."
3. Layout is Disorganized
The skills column and experience column appear side by side, which causes the text to feel cluttered and fragmented when read. "Skills: 80%" and "Soft Skills: 80%" as percentage bars are not meaningful to a recruiter - they do not tell me your actual level. Anyone can write "80%."
Fix: Use a clean single-column or professional two-column layout. Remove skill percentage bars and replace with descriptive proficiency levels or certifications.
4. No Summary is Weak - the Objective is Generic
"To obtain a position... where I can utilize my expertise... and contribute to the organization's success" is template language that every resume says. It does not tell me anything specific about you.
Fix: Replace with a 3-line professional summary: who you are, what you have done, and what specific value you bring. Example: "B.Sc. Neuroelectrophysiology graduate with 5 years of clinical training at KMCH, experienced in EEG, IONM, and polysomnography. Seeking a neurodiagnostics role where I can apply hands-on experience in sleep and surgical monitoring to improve patient outcomes."
5. Academic Scores are Average
62%, 73%, and 70% are honest, but listing them draws attention to below-average marks. For a clinical technical role this matters less than skills, but it still creates a mild negative impression.
Fix: If your institution uses a percentage system where 70% = distinction, briefly note the grading scale. Otherwise, consider leaving out percentages if they are not required.
6. No Personal Projects, Publications, or Research
Even a poster presentation, case report, or college project would strengthen the profile for a clinical science role.
QUICK SUMMARY TABLE
| Category | Rating | Comment |
|---|---|---|
| Relevance of Skills | 9/10 | Excellent match for neuro-diagnostic roles |
| Experience Clarity | 5/10 | "Internship" label is misleading |
| Resume Design | 5/10 | Cluttered, inconsistent layout |
| Quantified Achievements | 3/10 | No numbers at all |
| Objective/Summary | 4/10 | Too generic |
| Education | 6/10 | Relevant degree, average scores |
| Certifications | 7/10 | Good conference participation |
BOTTOM LINE
You have a genuinely solid clinical background for a fresh graduate entering neurodiagnostics. The skills are right, the institution (KMCH) has a good reputation, and the breadth of your training (sleep + IONM + EEG) makes you a versatile hire. However, the resume does not communicate that strength clearly. A recruiter reading this quickly might pass it over due to the layout and vague language.
Spend 2-3 hours on a redesign - use a clean template (Canva, Novoresume, or a simple Word format), rewrite the objective as a summary, add numbers to your experience bullets, and clarify the internship/training title. That alone would move this from a 6.5 to an 8.5.
