Good results creates a strong resume

Show achievements in your resume

I keep banging on about this because it’s so important.

Recruiters and employers don’t much care for a list of duties. They want to know whether you were good at your job.

Did you hit targets? Did you contribute new ideas? – if so, what were they?

Include measures of success. They can be guesstimates but they show you are capable of measuring your achievements.

Include ideas which have improved safety, organisational culture and efficiency.

Show you have achieved your key performance indicators and also helped colleagues.

Include projects you managed well, which had a good result.

Include where you solved a major problem, which produced a good result.

Show how you used influencing skills and mentored fellow workers.
