u/noFIXATION

​

Hi everyone,

I recently made a career transition from Electrical Engineering to AI/ML and also moved from Pakistan to New Zealand. Since I'm new to the NZ job market, I'd really appreciate some guidance on building a strong AI-focused resume.

I have around 6 months of professional AI experience along with multiple personal and freelance AI projects (LLMs, RAG, AI agents, computer vision, and machine learning). My biggest challenge is deciding which projects are worth including and how to structure my resume for entry-level AI roles.

I'm currently looking for roles such as:

AI Engineer

Machine Learning Engineer

Data Scientist

Computer Vision Engineer

AI Developer

I'd appreciate advice on:

How to structure an AI resume for the New Zealand job market.

What recruiters expect to see for entry-level AI candidates.

Which types of projects have the biggest impact.

Whether I should tailor my resume for different roles (AI Engineer vs Data Scientist vs Computer Vision).

Any resume examples or templates that helped you land interviews.
