Hey Job Seekers, it’s time to ditch the “responsible for,” “duties included,” “familiar with,” “knowledgeable in,” and “worked with” stuff.
It’s a waste of valuable resume space that you can use to communicate your accomplishments and what you achieved.
Instead, replace the passive phrases with action verbs that communicate your achievements.
Here are some of my favorites:
Accelerated
Achieved
Captured
Conceived
Designed
Created
Imagined
Reengineered
Revitalized
Spearheaded
Structured
Negotiated
Implemented
Automated
Which ones would you add to the list?
