SECOND PART
You can use power verbs when writing in English
(verbes that can create a Strong impression of
action) such as the following:
Achieved / administered / arranged / coordinated /
created / developed / doubled / established /
formulated generated / implemented increased /
initiated / launched / led / maintained / managed /
motivated / organized / planned / prepared / revised
reduced / saved /solved supervised / transformed.
Here are some tips:
• Remember to use quality paper
• Keep your Résumé short
• Always have someone proofread your Résumé
• Stress past accomplishments, promotions
and relevant skills
• Show, do not tell, and quantify results.
For example, do not say ”I am a hard working
doctor” Instead state, While studying
medicine I worked selling medical books for
a Scientific Publishing Co. increasing their
sales by 20 percent in one year.
Hope this information can help you.
Regards, Ricky.
