Adverbs
You have the option to select adverbs to accompany your verbs within experience bullet points. Adverbs describe a verb and therefore how you did something (e.g., efficiently organized, meticulously planned etc.).
When used strategically, an adverb can clarify an action verb to help accurately capture the nature of your experience or the way in which you uniquely (and successfully) undertook an activity. You may also decide to include adverbs contained in the job description to demonstrate your alignment with the organization.
Adverbs can be integrated on your résumé to strengthen your bullet points by:
Conveying how efficiently or reliably you completed an activity (e.g. rapidly scanned, consistently received positive feedback from clients)
Demonstrating how you recruited a positive personality trait to achieve something (e.g. assertively managed, cooperatively drafted, conscientiously planned)
Describing an approach to how you performed an activity (e.g. thoroughly vetted, independently conceptualized)
Emphasizing the impact or result of your contribution (e.g., successfully launched, effectively mentored, significantly increased)

Tip: Avoid overusing adverbs. Using them too frequently on your résumé can be frustrating to some readers, who may prefer shorter sentences beginning with strong action verbs. If you find yourself relying a lot on adverbs, consider looking for a stronger action verb to more precisely describe your experience. Use your best judgment or reach out to a career advisor or trusted source for feedback. |
