Take a look as a few of sites that specialise in how to write eye-catching curriculum vitae/resumes. There are sites that will build your document that will sell you to a recruiter or sites that provide templates, choose the best
If needed modify your own resume to grab attention based on the best these sites can offer.

When I hired people I would do a first pass in about 15 seconds each. Bad formatting, bad writing and spelling errors was an automatic reject. Another immediate reject was too many jobs in to short a period. I wanted to hire people who would be around say at least 2-3 years. I remember a resume where the applicant had not lasted a year in multiple recent jobs.

Those that made it past the first pass were fast reviewed for something related to what I was looking for. A resume had to quickly signal "I have what you're looking for" which of course meant that the applicant took the time to do a specific resume when needed.

Today of course, there's automated screening but I assume that the same basics apply but I'd research how to write an effective resume in 2024.
