While building HireKey, we kept running into a difficult balance.
A tailored resume should make real experience easier to recognize. But a stronger-sounding bullet can quietly imply ownership or impact the person never claimed. And copying language from a job description can make a resume look relevant without making it more convincing.
We kept coming back to three questions:
Is this claim supported by the original resume?
Does the wording make the candidate s actual contribution clearer?
Would the candidate feel comfortable explaining it in an interview?
