Make every line shine.
Type one bullet from your résumé. It scores as you write and shows you exactly what to strengthen.
Start with a strong verb. Tap one to use it.
Start typing
The same job, written two ways.
Choose an example. Strong bullets start with a verb, show what you did, and end with a result.
Four rules worth remembering.
One page, unless you’ve earned two
Under ten years of experience fits on one page. Cut anything that doesn’t help you get this particular job.
Results beat responsibilities
Your job description says what you were supposed to do. Your résumé should say what happened because you did it.
Mirror the job posting
Use the same words the posting uses for skills you really have. Many companies screen résumés by keyword first.
Your gaps aren’t a secret
A caregiving year or a layoff is part of life. One honest line is better than a date range that doesn’t add up.
