Explains how to quantify resume bullets for effective resume writing
Original Description
You can be "Responsible for" something on your resume and still be terrible at it.
I’m "Responsible for..." getting myself to the gym, but I haven't been in a year!
Now, if I told you I went to the gym five days a week for 50 weeks straight, that’s an accomplishment.
The same goes for your resume
Don’t list what you were responsible for; instead, show what you actually did.
🍊 “Responsible for managing projects”
❌ Boring and vague
🍊 “Delivered 12 projects on time and under budget”
✅ Clear accomplishment
Even if you think your job isn’t measurable, you can always find a way to quantify it.
PS - If your resume isn’t getting as many interviews, I have seen what is actually working in this job market. I created the free “Resume Revamp Masterclass,” here is the link: https://www.standoutresume.com/webinar
Include accomplishments when you can!
