Isebell Gauche
There are some words that just stand out on a CV, which are frequently
called CV buzz words. A short list of verbs that can be used
as CV buzz words is provided below..
You will note that the words are written in the past tense since
most CVs refer to jobs or positions in the past time. If you prefer
to use present tense in your CV you should use it consistently.
Thus - always either past or present tense - not a mixture of the
two. Browse through the list of CV buzz words and select the ones
appropriate to your situation to draw attention to your accomplishments.
