Resume example

Product designer

Alex Rivera, eight years across a health startup and a design studio. This is the resume you end up with after a week of arguing about whether a summary is needed — the version where every line earns its place.

Why this works

Eight decisions, each visible in the document on the left.

The summary carries scope, not adjectives. Eight years, 2M+ customers, 18%. A recruiter decides in six seconds whether to keep reading, and these are the three facts that decide it. "Passionate and detail-oriented" is a waste of the line.
Every bullet is a claim, not a duty. "Led", "built", "ran", "mentored" — then a number. If a bullet could be pasted onto someone else's resume unchanged, it is not doing its job.
One number per bullet. Three metrics in a line means the reader cannot tell which one mattered. Pick the one that changed the business.
Dates are consistent and reversible. "Mar 2021 — Present" everywhere, never "03/2021" in one place and "March 2021" in another. Inconsistent dates read as a proofreading failure.
The summary names a specialty. Checkout, design systems, payments. Those are the words a hiring manager can match against a job description, and matchers are literal.
Weight follows recency. Studio Mesa, eight years ago, gets two lines. A resume that treats 2016 and 2021 equally misleads about where your strength actually is.
Skills are grouped by what they enable. Design, Research, Tools — capability first, software second. A recruiter looking for prototyping finds it without reading a list of applications.
Education is one line, below experience. At eight years in, the degree is a formality. It is not the reason anyone called.

Adapting it

Swap the two or three bullets that match the posting to the top of the first role. Order inside a role is the cheapest targeting there is.
If you have no number for something, describe the scale instead: team size, users, budget, deadline. An honest scale beats an invented percentage.
Cut the project and the certification entirely if they are not current. Both are optional, and a stale extra section costs you credibility.

Start from this

The resume travels inside the link itself, so opening it in the builder involves no upload and no account. Replace the contact details first.
