Turning duties into quantified achievements

A simple formula to rewrite any bullet point around impact.

4 min read

The formula

Action verb + what you did + measurable result. For example: "Rebuilt the month-end close process, cutting it from 10 days to 4."

Find your numbers

Think about volume (how many), value (how much), speed (how fast) and scale (how many people or markets). Estimates are fine if they are honest.

Before and after

Before: "Responsible for client reporting."

After: "Automated weekly reporting for 40 clients, saving the team 12 hours a week."
