In office roles, care and systems win: tools, processes and figures you owned. Hiring managers check training, software skills and the last position first.

How to word your roles

  • Name systems: ERP, accounting or Office tools with modules, not just computer skills.
  • Show volume: cases per day, budget or team size make experience tangible.
  • Mention process wins: name improvements together with their result.

Skills that count

Office software with levels, ERP and industry tools, languages, numeracy and organisation. Contact details, profile, experience, education, training, skills. Two pages are standard.

The role examples let you adopt wording straight into your resume.
