Just read that women often use communal words like “supported” or “assisted” over agentic ones like “directed” or “initiated.” This negatively impacts on the outcome of resume check.

Do you think using more assertive language would change hiring outcomes?

Yes, but only if it is true.

Maybe, I’d have to say it depends a lot on who is going over the resume and how it comes off to them at that time. I feel like it is splitting hairs to some degree, but also not in that position making those choices. Does make you think a lot though about how what you say comes off to certain people.
