Why this resume works
- The summary names the role, the years of experience and the main tools in the first line, so a recruiter and a parser both see the match at once.
- Each bullet is one achievement with a measurable result: time saved, users reached, errors removed.
- Skills are listed as plain words that also appear in the job descriptions this person is targeting.
- Dates are written as month and year, and the headings are Summary, Work Experience, Projects, Education and Skills.
Before you copy it
- Replace every number with your own. If you do not know the exact figure, give an honest range or leave the bullet out.
- Copy two or three skills from each job advert into your skills line, but only the ones you really have.
