Resume Action Words

 
 

When putting together a resume remember to use action words. Remember to punctuate your resume with action words. While it is not advisable to lie on a resume, choose those words that suggest the most responsibility. For example, compile information sounds better than create lists.

Try not to use the same words repeatedly. Use the following list for ideas.
