2,017 Action Verbs For Creating a 2017 Resume

By Martin P. Buckland

RESUME ACTION VERBS


2,017 Action Verbs To Create An Enticing Resume Before helping you understand how to effectively select and utilize action verbs to escalate your resume, let’s review the difference between a verb and an action verb. A verb represents an action or state however an action verb is used to describe something a person did or can do. Examples of action verbs typically found in a resume include: Supervise, Train, Mentor…to name a few. Incorporating action verbs into your resume is not as difficult as you might think but does require some strategic planning. NEVER begin an accomplishment sentence with the word “I”; instead use an action verb to start each achievement statement. Select the strongest and most appropriate action verb. For example: Replace: I help my team achieve their personal goals. With: Mentor and encourage team members to achieve personal and

professional growth. After selecting the action verb, decide if the verb must be written in current or past tense. Utilize past tense when describing accomplishments performed for previous employers. For current employers, decide if the situation is in the past or ongoing. (In devising this list, I composed all verbs in the past tense.) For example: Current tense: Lead a 15-person team tasked with enhancing product

development in a saturated market. Past tense: Led a 15-person team tasked with enhancing product

development, devising and deploying 3 new products within a 10 month period generating $1.1 million in additional revenue.

While challenging, avoid (or at least limit) using the same action verb more than once in a resume. This is where using a Thesaurus proves to be a valuable asset. For example, the following words are effective substitutions for the word “Create”: Make, Produce, Generate, Fashion, Form, Construct, Invent, etc…

RESUME ACTION VERBS


Often, the job posting will contain verbs pertinent to the position. Carefully search and scan the description to detect those words which must be included in your resume. Examples of action verbs by function include: Management: Achieved, Administered, Directed, Consolidated, Incorporated Communication: Addressed, Authored, Influenced, Moderated, Persuaded Technical: Analyzed, Calculated, Computed, Programmed, Solved Clerical: Classified, Compiled, Edited, Maintained, Organized Financial: Audited, Balanced, Budgeted, Estimated, Reconciled Academic: Advised, Coached, Evaluated, Lectured, Taught R&D: Collected, Diagnosed, Examined, Researched, Studied Sales: Boosted, Catapulted, Elevated, Penetrated, Propelled Should your resume be electronically scanned by a company, incorporating key verbs into the resume elevates the chances your resume will “pass” the initial electronic review and proceed to the next level in the company’s hiring process. The following list of 2,016 action verbs provides ample selection of business appropriate verbs to accommodate your resume needs. Enjoy. Martin P.
