Resumes are marketing tools. Think transferable and field-related skills when creating your document. Be specific and intentional with what you include, and please remember to always be truthful about your accomplishments and work history.
Do develop a strong accomplishment statement you want to state what you did; how or why you did it and what benefit came from it. It should tell the employer what you did with the responsibilities that you were given. Take a look at the 2 examples below. The second one definitely makes a bigger impact!
https://cloud.ixara.com/?_ga=2.203794384.1366202012.1556229632-1218707634.1556229632&doc=RXGxIwguO8

Action-Benefit statements use your accomplishments and experi- ence to demonstrate the positive impact you can have on a company’s bottom line. An Action-Benefit statement consists of:
Action:
A job responsibility or specific action that you took when faced with a situa- tion, problem, or opportunity that enabled you to achieve a positive result.
Benefit:
The positive result or benefit to the organization, such as an increase in revenue, a reduction in costs, streamlined processes or systems, or improved morale.
An Action-Benefit statement might read “Analyzed declining sales and developed cam-
paign that increased orders by 30% in less than one month.” This statement describes the situation or challenge you faced (declining sales), the Action you took (developed a campaign), and the Benefit of your actions (a 30% increase in orders). Always quantify or qualify the accom- plishments and achievements described in your Action-Benefit statement.
When you are quantifying results, consider the impact of your work in measurable terms and include the numbers, percents, dollars, and other values that represent your experience in the best possible light.
Alternatively, when you are qualifying accomplishments, consider describing
the process, depicting the environment, and including the personal characteristics that a future employer would consider valuable.When writing an Action-Benefit statement, it is unnecessary to provide details on how you solved the problem. You can provide this infor- mation at the interview. Focus on the results as opposed to the process. If your Action-Benefit statements are powerful enough, employers will invite you in for an interview just to see how you achieved the results.
Your bullet points should promote your transferable skills, demonstrate your ability to make an impact,
and show a history of success. Below are step-by-step directions to help you get started:
1. Determine 5-7 skills that are most relevant to your target audience
• MBA level skills include:
• Analytics / Problem Solving / Research
• Communication / Interpersonal skills
• Leadership / Teamwork / Mentorship
• Quantitative skills
• Creativity / Innovation
2. Identify your key accomplishments and list key skills used in each accomplishment
• What did you create/build? What ideas/concepts did you develop?
• Did you direct people or projects?
• What problems were you able to solve? What challenges did you overcome?
• What were you most proud of at your previous job? Did you receive any awards or promotions?
3. STAR Method (Situation-Task-Action-Result) - Pick the accomplishments which
demonstrate 5-7 relevant skills. List the following for each accomplishment
• What you did (describe the situation that you were in or the task that you needed to accomplish)
• How you did it (actions you took)
• The impact of your actions (results)
4. Write each bullet point in a manner that demonstrates the situation or task, the action taken and the result of your accomplishment
• Start bullet points with active verbs
• Pick the first words of each bullet point wisely; start with your relevant skill or your impact
• Eliminate any jargon that is not relevant, but incorporate relevant jargon
• Quantify (#, %, $) your impact. Did sales/profits increase? Did costs decrease? Was time saved? Did you exceed your goals? If so, by how much?
• Provide context/scope when quantifiable results are not available. Consider the intended impact or results vs. last year or vs. your peers. Include whether or not you received any commendation.
