When I was pivoting into UX and tech, my mentor gave me a piece of resume advice that I still use today (and always pass along to mentees) 🙌💡
This formula for writing your resume bullet points is super simple but extremely effective 👇
What you did,
How you did it,
& Why you did it (and/or what the impact was)
Here are a couple of examples (from my own resume):
Created service design frameworks to overhaul corporate processes, leveraging generative research methodologies (including stakeholder interviews and focus groups), to support company growth and increase bidding opportunities
Conducted user surveys using attitudinal research methodologies and survey tagging to identify potential areas for process improvement
This formula not only provides additional context to recruiters and hiring managers, but it also demonstrates your understanding of the purpose behind your work and how it aligns with user, product, and/or business strategies. 💪
So take a moment to revisit your resume and give this method a try! It will really make a huge difference in how you showcase your skills and accomplishments during your job search 🚀
