Don't List Responsibilities Of Your Previous Jobs, Demonstrate Outcomes

The problem with writing responsibilities you held on the job is it doesn't tell an employer how successful you were at executing your plans. An employer only cares about how good you did your job and how what you did can apply to the job they are offering.

Rather than list responsibilities, demonstrate your performance.

• Are you the most senior member of your team?
• Do people turn to you for the more challenging issues?
• Is your level of accuracy and the quality of your work at the highest level?
• Have you demonstrated the ability to meet aggressive deadlines?
