Power words in a resume are words that make your application unique and impressive. Powerful resume words include:
- action verbs that describe accomplishments on your resume, such as “introduce,” “generate,” and “cultivate”
- strong resume adjectives that give hiring managers a sense of your soft skills, like “decisive,” “fearless,” and “intuitive”
Use power words in your resume instead of weak, overused terms like:
- help
- efficient
- manage
- hardworking
- handle
- responsible for
