Free resume bullet point generator
Turn a line that lists duties into one that shows what you achieved, without adding anything you didn't do.
What makes a bullet work
Start with a strong past-tense verb
"Built", "cut", "led", "launched". Not "responsible for" or "helped with", which describe a job, not what you did in it.
Show the result
What changed because you did it? Time saved, money made, errors removed, people served. A number makes it believable, if you have one.
Use the job's words for what you really did
If the posting says "stakeholder reporting" and your line says "made reports for managers", say it their way. Only where it's true.
Never add what you didn't do
A tool, a team size or a percentage you can't back up is the first thing an interviewer asks about. Keep every real number; invent none.
Questions
- How many bullet points should each job have?
- Three to five for your most recent or most relevant role, two to three for older ones. Lead with the lines that matter most for the job you're applying for.
- What if my line has no number?
- Don't invent one. Make the action and its purpose clear instead ("Rebuilt the onboarding checklist so new hires could start without a manager present"). The rewriter never adds numbers.
- Will this get past applicant tracking systems?
- ATS software matches the words a job uses. Rewriting your real experience in the posting's language helps it match; keyword stuffing with skills you don't have doesn't survive the interview.
- What happens to what I paste?
- It's sent to our AI provider to write the rewrites, and Work-ly doesn't save it or add it to an account.
