Add scope to the task.

“Served customers” says what the role included. “Managed a 40-seat section through Friday dinner service” helps the reader understand pace and responsibility.

  • How many customers, orders or records?
  • How often did you do it?
  • What standard or deadline applied?
02

Name your own action.

Use a specific verb that describes your work rather than a personality adjective.

  • Resolved
  • Coordinated
  • Prepared
  • Reconciled
  • Trained
03

Finish with evidence.

Not every role has a sales number. Evidence can include accuracy, time saved, repeat customers, a smooth handover, positive feedback or a current certificate.
