What matters most

A practical approach
Use accurate evidence from your experience and keep the résumé, form, and interview story consistent.
- Separate required qualifications from nice-to-have items.
- Choose three to five matching achievements from your history.
- Move the clearest evidence into the summary and recent experience.
