Keywords
The job description that you are applying to has a certain set of keywords that you should be using in your resume. This firstly makes your resume ATS friendly. Secondly, adding keywords from the description reflects that you have taken the pain to modify your resume for this job.
Accolades and Recognition

Excellent service from Andrew; I received a phone call as soon as I placed the order. It's a quick turnaround for a resume and cover letter. My new resume looks very streamlined and very clear. Thanks again, Andrew, for your help.
My resume was very dense and consisted of way too much information. Andrew Martin from Crisp Resume turned my CV into the most professional and on-point version of my career! Because of the detail to attention in my resume, I am no longer hoping for that interview but know it's a just matter of when! Thank you to Andrew and Team at Crisp Resume - HIGHLY Recommend!
