Forbes -- If you’ve been out of work for several months and aren’t getting any interviews--or you’re going on interviews but not getting any offers--you should adjust your approach to job-hunting. First, reevaluate your résumé. Replace hackneyed expressions like “strong team player” and “possess organizational skills” with strong, active verbs that demonstrate results. Whenever possible, use numbers to indicate performance. Instead of saying “Managed a team of three” say “Managed a team of three employees who interacted with clients and had a 100% client retention rate over two years.”
