Resume Bullet Rewriter
Paste a single resume bullet and we'll score it, flag weak words, and show you templates for rewriting in STAR, XYZ, or PAR format.
How to write better resume bullets
- Start with a strong action verb. "Led," "Built," "Reduced," "Delivered" beat "Was responsible for" or "Helped with."
- Quantify the outcome. "Reduced cycle time by 30%" beats "Improved efficiency."
- Keep bullets to 1-2 lines. 10-25 words. Recruiters scan in seconds.
- Lead with the OUTCOME, not the method. XYZ format puts the win first; STAR buries it at the end.
- Match keywords from the job description — but naturally, not stuffed.
