How to Quantify Accomplishments on Your Resume

How to Quantify Accomplishments on Your Resume

How can you demonstrate impact in your resume or CV?

Answer: Use numbers.

Showing that you have made an impact is essential for a successful resume. We’ve created a checklist with 38 experiences that can be quantified so that you can wow an admissions reader or potential employer.

Some examples:

  • Number of people whom you have taught as a teacher.
  • Number of people who attended an event you organized.
  • How many people you and your team registered in a get-out-the-vote effort.
  • Number of languages you speak, countries you’ve visited or lived in.
  • Years you’ve played a musical instrument and/or been part of an orchestra.
  • How many people did you motivate or organize to start running/hiking/meditating at your place of work?

And we’ve got 32 more where these come from.

Use the checklist as a guide and a reference to quantify the experiences and expertise that is unique to your journey. It will also serve as a springboard to help you come up with other quantifiable achievements so that you end up with a resume that earns you an acceptance!
