Avoid "Responsible For"

Being responsible for something is just a circumstance. Saying you were "responsible for [X]" is a weak and generic way to describe your abilities and accomplishments.

Of course you had responsibilities. Doesn't everyone? And if not, then did you really bring any value to the company?

It's also advised to stay away from general office buzzwords and confusing phrases. These are words that you might hear people say all the time, but are often incredibly vague.
