The last tool I can offer is a set of questions that will aid you in identifying and strengthening your list of professional accomplishments. Not all questions will apply to each profession or role, but a non-relevant question may still prompt you in identifying a similar accomplishment of your own. In addition to the following questions, remember to think broadly as professional accomplishments can also relate to training and education, continuing education, recognition, and soft skills as well as communication and leadership skills. What is unique about how you do your job? What does your current boss praise you for? If you have quotas or goals in your current position, are you able to meet or exceed them? Were you hired to meet a particular challenge for the company? Were you rewarded with any additional responsibility? Have you done anything to improve customer relationships with the company? Have you done anything to improve communications, either internally or externally? What teams have you been part of? What are you most proud of? What would your co-workers say about you? What do you enjoy the most? How did you take initiative in your position? What special projects have you worked on? How did you set yourself apart? How did you go above and beyond what was required? What have you done to increase your responsibilities in your current job? Which of your accomplishments are you most proud of? Were you promoted in recognition of your work performance? Did you increase sales or profits? Did you recruit new customers for the business? Did you save the company money? Did you institute any new processes or procedures? Most people are not comfortable talking about their accomplishments and think they are bragging. In job search, it is very important to showcase your talents and skills, so the reader of your resume will be able to capture the essence of who you are and what you can do for them.
