On that point, we have a slide on the STAR Resume method framework. When execs describe their tasks or achievements under any previous job, its important the description tells the reader: under what situation was this task performed, what specific task was performed, the actions conducted in response to that task, and the results achieved.

You can describe the results achieved in a job description by using specific, measurable outcomes. For example, instead of saying 'improved sales', you could say 'increased sales by 15% over a six month period'. You could also use specific examples of projects or tasks you completed that had a positive impact on the company. For example, 'led a team that completed a project three weeks ahead of schedule, saving the company $10,000'.

You can describe the actions conducted in response to a task in a job description by detailing the strategies implemented, the steps taken, the skills utilized, and the challenges overcome. You can also mention the collaboration with team members or other departments, the use of specific tools or software, and the decision-making processes involved.
