Recruiter told me my resume read like a job description instead of a person, here's what I changed
#job-search#resume
Recruiter looked at my resume for about ten seconds and said it read like the job description I was applying to, not like a person who'd actually done the work. Went back and rewrote every bullet to include a specific number or outcome instead of a responsibility, 'reduced page load by 40%' instead of 'responsible for performance optimization.' Painful rewrite since half my bullets didn't have a number I could point to, had to actually go dig up old metrics. Callback rate noticeably better after.

AnonymousAnon Went through the same exercise and it's brutal how many bullets you think are fine until you try to attach an actual number to them. Worth it though.
