What Is an Accomplishment?
On your resume, an accomplishment is an example of how you contributed to your employer, or it's an achievement that reflects the kind of worker you are. The most convincing accomplishments are measurable. Examples:
A welder relays her dedication to quality: “Achieved a record of zero defects in all pipe-welding and ductwork jobs.”
An engineer shows how he contributed to the bottom line: “Drove $1.2 million revenue increase by deploying 200-plus software suites for company's leading product line.”
A minister demonstrates how she increased church participation: “Helped grow membership from 175 to 249 in one year through active involvement in community events.”
