"Start with an active verb, then a direct object, and maybe a how or why statement—that is the recipe for describing your work in a resume. Choose verbs that are clear and snappy. A good “how” statement will help those who are unfamiliar with the job (e.g., recruiters) understand the importance of the task and show your skills and abilities."
