My typical advice when I’m reviewing resumes is to focus on every line being in the following format: “What you did, impact you made”

Too many people just list what they did and provide no context as to how it helped the company, their project, supported goals.

Keep to 3 bullets per project and keep your language concise and straightforward.

Also have multiple people review it, and then compare all of their feedback before updating and you’ll be able to find trends/specific areas that get called out for improvement.
