[quote=Anonymous]I am a federal labor and employment attorney who just recently switched from one agency to another. My resume absolutely reflected my accomplishments. For example, rather than "represents agency in cases before the MSPB" it says something like "selected to represent agency in high profile MSPB appeal involving senior level officials, including complex discovery and a three-day hearing, etc..." I also highlighted any significant working groups or initiatives I was selected to serve on. I think the point is to convey the message that not only did you do something, you were chosen to do that specific thing because of your track-record and competence. Being specifc really helps. Everybody who applies for the job will say that they handle EEOC, MSPB, arbitrartion matters, etc. I think that a successful resume is one that gives specific examples, and numbers if possible.[/quote]
