You’ve got six seconds. Make ‘em count.

Most resumes get skimmed, not studied. Let’s make yours magnetic. This isn’t about stuffing it with buzzwords—it’s about showcasing your impact, clarity, and personality in a way that screams: “You need me on your team.”

The 6-Second Scan Test

Recruiters scan for:

  • Job titles

  • Companies

  • Impact (metrics!)

  • Visual clarity

Your resume needs to pop instantly. Use bolded job titles, clean formatting, and measurable wins.

Before/After Example:

Before:

  • Responsible for managing social media channels
     After:

  • Grew Instagram following by 72% in 6 months, increasing lead gen by 30%

Copy Swaps that Work:

  • “Worked on” → “Led,” “Built,” “Launched”

  • “Responsible for” → “Drove,” “Owned”

  • “Helped with” → “Collaborated on,” “Contributed to”

Resume Red Flags:

  • Walls of text

  • Generic summaries

  • No metrics or context

Your resume should feel like your highlight reel, not a job description. You’re not just listing experience—you’re selling potential.
