May I suggest that you remove your age, just because sometimes it can lead to age discrimination (at least here in the US). They will be able to closely determine your age based upon your education and work history.

Reviewing your resume, I didn't see any management/supervisory experience, but maybe I missed something.

Divulging age might be expected in Europe. As far as determining age by education and work history, the OP got his BS in 2002, which would mean that he was ~27 at the time, or about 5-6 years older than might be expected.

Everybody has to start somewhere. :D

Age discrimination is illegal in the UK, potential employers can't ask for age or date of birth.

If you want to work in the UK, contact the British Embassy in Sofia. Even when Bulgaria joins the EU next year there may be restrictions on emigration to the UK. In the last couple of years we've had in excess of 600 000 immigrants from Poland, Latvia, Czeck Republick and the like. Many are highly qualified but most are working in low paid jobs and lots are unemployed.

Many automotive suppliers are transferring work to low wage countries such as Poland, Turkey, Romania and Bulgaria so there's now a lot of competition for decent jobs over here.

Good luck with your job search.

It's generally not done. As Coury suggested, age can usually be approximated by education and experience. In the US it's illegal to discriminate in hiring on the basis of age, and there is personal data that's usually not divulged in résumés.

What does it mean:
Am I too old or am I too young? :rolleyes:

What I am saying: There is no need to place your age on your resume. I am not saying that you are to old or to young. There is age discrimination that happens in the US, but I don't know about the UK or other countries.

The age thing is unnecessary to be part of a resume.

Think about it from a Employer's prospective: I have a 30 year old person competing with someone that is say 25 years old or someone that is 35 years old. Who would have the longer tenure?

That maybe true, but how is that going to be proved? Age discrimination is very hard to prove.

Most people here in the US don't place their age on a resume. It is recommended that this not be part of the resume. It is also recommended that pictures or descriptions (of yourself) be left out on the resume. Because of discrimination or the possibility of.
