Turn Your Experience into Strong Resume Bullets
Your resume says "responsible for customer service" but recruiters want to see impact, achievements, and results. Let AI help you showcase what you actually accomplished.
The Problem
Most people struggle to write resume bullets that:
- Show impact instead of just listing tasks
- Use strong action verbs
- Quantify achievements with numbers
- Sound impressive without exaggerating
- Fit the industry language and keywords
How AI Helps
AI can take your rough description of what you did and transform it into polished, achievement-focused bullet points that grab attention. It knows the formula recruiters look for.
The Formula
Strong resume bullets follow this pattern:
[Action Verb] + [What You Did] + [Measurable Result/Impact]
Example:
- Weak: "Responsible for social media"
- Strong: "Grew Instagram following by 300% in 6 months, driving 25% increase in website traffic"
When to Use This
- Writing a new resume from scratch
- Updating your resume for a job application
- Struggling to describe what you did at a previous job
- Trying to quantify your impact
- Tailoring bullets to match a specific job posting
Example Prompts
- "I managed a retail team. Turn this into 3 strong resume bullets"
- "I helped customers solve problems. Make this sound impactful with numbers"
- "I'm applying for a marketing role. Here's what I did at my last job: [description]. Write bullets that match marketing industry language"
- "I don't have exact numbers. Help me estimate the impact of [accomplishment]"
Pro Tips
- Focus on achievements - What changed because of your work?
- Use numbers - Even estimates are better than nothing
- Start with strong verbs - Led, Achieved, Increased, Developed, Managed
- Tailor to the job - Adjust bullets to match the job description
- Be honest - AI can make things sound good, but don't exaggerate
