Check your resume bullets, line by line

Paste your bullets, one per line. Each is checked for what recruiters notice first: a number, a strong opening verb, active voice, filler and length.

What it checks

  • Numbers. How many, how much, how fast, before and after. The single biggest difference between a bullet that gets read and one that gets skimmed.
  • The opening. “Responsible for”, “helped with” and “worked on” describe a job description, not an achievement. Start with the verb of what you did.
  • Voice. “The report was delivered” hides who delivered it. You did — say so.
  • Filler. “Successfully”, “various”, “results-driven”: words that take space and prove nothing.
  • Length. One idea per bullet, about 8 to 30 words.

Missing numbers is the hardest one to fix on your own, because the numbers are in your head, not on the page. The bullet improver asks you for them.

Questions

What makes a resume bullet strong?
It starts with what you did, says how much or how many, and shows what changed because of it — in one line. "Rebuilt the checkout page, cutting load time from 4s to 1.5s" beats "Responsible for the checkout page".
Does every bullet need a number?
Not every one, but most can have one: people, money, time, percentages, counts. A number is what a recruiter remembers, and what makes the claim believable.
Is my resume sent anywhere?
No. The checks run in your browser; nothing you paste leaves your computer.
Does it work for Chinese resumes?
Yes. It recognises weak openers like 负责 and 参与 and counts length in characters.
