Terms to look for in Strategy postings

Use a term only when it truly describes your work. Then match the posting's own wording, since hiring teams and screening software both look for it.

One tip that helps most

Show the decision your work informed, and who made it.

A simple process for each application

  1. List what the posting asks for, in its own words.
  2. Match each ask to something you have really done.
  3. Reorder your bullets so the closest matches come first.
  4. Note the gaps honestly, and prepare to talk about them.

ResumeFit does these steps for you. It builds each resume only from your own experience, then shows what you can't honestly claim.
