Resume writing examples
The Difference Between Listing Duties and Showing Impact
Many resumes describe what someone was responsible for. Stronger resumes also explain the contribution they made.
Before
Responsibility-Focused
"Responsible for managing customer accounts, answering inquiries and maintaining client relationships."
The reader knows the general duties, but little about the person's contribution.
After
Achievement-Focused
"Managed 75 client accounts, streamlined customer response processes and contributed to a 12% improvement in client retention."
The revised example communicates scope, specific actions and measurable results.
Illustrative example only. Your resume should contain accurate, verifiable information.
Modern resume writing
ATS-Friendly Resume Writing for Today's Job Market
Many employers use applicant tracking systems (ATS) to collect and organize job applications.
Although these systems differ, a clear resume structure and relevant terminology can make your qualifications easier to interpret.
Our resume writing approach emphasizes readability, appropriate keywords and professional organization rather than complicated formatting.
- Recognizable section headings
- Clear job titles and employment dates
- Relevant professional terminology
- Accurate skills and qualifications
- Concise, achievement-focused bullets
- Readable formatting
The result is a resume designed to communicate effectively to both people and recruitment systems.
No resume can guarantee a particular ATS ranking, interview or job offer.
