How to include numbers on your resume to quantify your experience

You’ve read about how to include numbers on your resume – but you don’t think you have any numbers to include in your resume bullet points. Think again.

This episode dives into a common myth: to quantify your experience, your resume bullet points must have impressive outcomes like “I helped the company make $1,000,000” to make your resume stand out. Spoiler alert: you don’t.

By shifting the focus of your resume bullet points from outcomes to processes, you can find plenty of metrics to showcase your work.

Quantifying your resume bullet points is possible if you focus on the process. Examples include the number of participants in a research study, the size of datasets analyzed, or how frequently tasks were performed. Designers can talk about the number of components in their design systems or the number of screens they worked on. Managers might highlight the size of the teams they led. Including these kinds of numbers adds context to your experience and catches the eye of potential employers.

Finally learn how you can include numbers on your resume to quantify your experience even if you think you can’t include numbers because of NDAs or because you don’t, or no longer, have access to the data. By focusing your resume bullet points on process, along with any outcomes you have, you can stand out to recruiters, hiring managers, and the ATS.
