#322) How to Include Resume Accomplishments Even if That's ‘Too Difficult’


Listen Later

Some of our resume writers share insights on the challenge many clients face with metrics and emphasize the power of qualifying and quantifying skills with measurable outcomes. Discover how incorporating numbers sets you apart from the competition and elevates you to the top of the resume pile.


In our discussion, we explore creative ways to highlight achievements when metrics are scarce. Learn how to put on your investigative hat, drawing inspiration from company reports, social media, and even conversations with colleagues. Gain valuable tips on providing context and scope to your work, enhancing the impact of your accomplishments.


We also pay a visit to Japan, drawing parallels from the collectivistic nature of Japanese society. Find out how the concept of collective responsibility and harmony can influence the way you present your achievements in a team-oriented context.


As we delve into the FAQ segment, get answers to common questions like "How much?" and learn how to focus your energy on emphasizing recent experiences. Discover the importance of honesty when including numbers on your resume and defend yourself against the temptation to exaggerate or lie.
