I've used the resume workbook and just completed polishing my resume and looking for feedback. Some of my accomplishments don't set right with me...the verbiage feels awkward. Please share any pointers/comments. If, by chance, you're interested in talking, send me a PM. :)
Two cents
Hi,
First, i'm not a resume expert. Next, i don't have the resume work book. I'm only a paid licensee.
I browsed through the resume and noticed some "accomplishments" listed as activities, not results. The 2nd and 3rd bullet on your current job - implemented....
then the 4th bullet on your current job is listed as "telling a story" and i think hiring managers would like to read it as what happened or what was the result when you got selected. Your first bullet on the previous job tells it better, imo.
Then, podcasts are a little grey on these areas, but i personally refrain from percentages or at least, pair them with actual values. While it may be ok, it can be great. And as what Mark said, the resume should represent your best work. So if you can make it better, why stick with good.

thanks
I appreciate the help and I see what you mean about "activities" vs "results". Any other feedback is appreciated.
