Worked in retail management but want to pivot to consulting. Resume tools claim they can reframe non-relevant experience—does this actually convince recruiters? How do you highlight transferable skills without stretching the truth?
‘increased checkout efficiency 15%’ becomes ‘orchestrated operational transformation driving double-digit kpi gains.’ welcome to consulting speak. just don’t claim you solved world hunger.
used a resume tool as a student!! turned my café job into ‘stakeholder ops optimization’ lol. got me past ATS once, but prep for case interviews harder 
Analysis shows recruiters spend 0.7 seconds per resume line. Quantify outcomes (e.g., ‘Trained 15 staff→20% faster onboarding’) and lead with consulting verbs (‘Streamlined,’ ‘Architected’). Prioritize metrics over duties.
