1. Brainstorming your Accomplishments:

  • Start by making a list of all your achievements, both big and small. Don't be afraid to include accomplishments from internships, volunteer work, or extracurricular activities.
  • Be concise and to the point. Employers often have to go through hundreds of resumes, so make sure your accomplishments are easy to read and understand.
  • Use action verbs, such as "led," "managed," "implemented," or "achieved."
  • Don’t worry about tailoring your achievements to the job you are applying for. We will target those later!
  • Provide context and data when possible. For example, "I decreased customer complaints by 25% through the implementation of a new customer service training program."
After writing all of your achievements down, upload the file to your List of Achievements
