Before applying for a job
Please add any requirements that you did, not what someone else in the group did.
Remove from your resume anything you didn’t do or know. This will come out during the interview and you won’t be considered and now your reputation is ruined. See the Hiring Manager’s comments after interviewing an applicant that lied on his resume
The most impressive resumes concisely and compellingly illustrate one major message: “This is how I made things better for the companies I worked for. Use Accomplishments / Achievements instead of responsible for. Leave off an objective.
Have you received an award, recommendation, or letter for a job well done? Mention it on your resume.
