What is Action Verb?
An action verb is a strong, specific verb used to start a resume bullet — launched, shipped, reduced, built. Strong action verbs communicate ownership; weak ones (responsible for, worked on) do not.
Examples
- "Launched a pricing page that lifted conversion 18%."
- "Reduced AWS spend by $240K/year."
- "Led a 6-person engineering team through a platform migration."
