Don't forget to quantify your "outside of work" achievements, as well.

Things like:

As newly elected recruitment officer for my local opera, increased patrons by 36%.

Increased donations to local food panty by 100%, feeding 40% more customers.

As Mother increase offspring by 50%.

Great point, Mike - People are much more than their work achievements and should showcase those other parts of their lives!

Thanks team. This is absolutely brilliant advice. I am going to try and update my CV over the festive period to quantify some of my achievements beyond vague adjectives and flowery prose. 😅

HA! Thank you, Sam. Don't forget to quantify your extracurricular activities, including the brilliant Slow AI community you've created this year!
