It’s very hard to write your own resume because a resume is a macro view of your life, but you live your life at the micro level.
Don’t focus on your responsibilities, focus on what you achieved.
A resume is not your life story. No one cares. The only things that should be on your resume are achievements. The best way to show that you did your job well is from achievements.
Think about when a company announced the launch of their product. First of all, the product is not done. Second of all, it has bugs. And third, the company is probably showing photos of prototypes and the real thing will look different.

D.In fact, the interview is where the hard-core selling takes place. |
