I look forward to reviewing your resume draft soon and helping you create a fantastic final document!
To conclude, here is a quick recap:
💡 Each sentence should be structured on Google’s XYZ formula: "Accomplished [X] as measured by [Y], by doing [Z]."
💡 Example: Instead of saying "worked with team members on a project", say "Collaborated with 5+ analysts on go-to-market strategy by researching 20+ cities across the United States, resulting in an ARR of $1M."
💡 Last but not least, keep it concise. One or two pages max
