Transform your resume from job description to evidence of impact — backed by recruiter eye-tracking research and hiring science
Most resumes describe what you did. Recruiters hire for what changed because of you. The Resume Alignment Upgrade Checklist draws on peer-reviewed research in recruiter cognition (Cole et al., 2007), eye-tracking studies (The Ladders, 2018), signaling theory (Spence, 1973), and person–organization fit research (Kristof-Brown, 2005) to give you a complete, evidence-based system for transforming every section of your resume. You'll learn why the 7.4-second initial scan determines your fate before a human reads a single sentence, how to rewrite duty statements as credible impact signals, which action verbs signal leadership vs. execution (and how to match them to your level), and how to frame your values and purpose to pass both the algorithmic screen and the human fit assessment. Includes 12 before/after bullet rewrites across 12 different functions, 150+ categorized action verbs, a full metrics bank by role type, and an ATS optimization checklist — plus a Recruiter Lens Review checklist for final pre-submission testing. This is the checklist that makes your next application the one that gets the call-back.
