I wasn't sure which category to post this in but...
I'm working on updating my resume, since it's been several years. I'm trying recast some of my old jobs in a more positive light. For example, I worked as a prep cook for about two years chopping vegetables, slicing meat, and washing dishes. In my job description I wrote: Ensured that an adequate supply of food, ingredients, silverware, and dishes were available to meet the restaurants daily needs.
I've got a little writer's block. Is there a nice way of saying; I took out the trash, did some maintenance, and scrubbed floors?...basically some janitorial work. I've got about four different jobs that I have to do this for. I also have to try and pick out career relevant skills from each of these jobs. I'm probably going to go with the obvious ones like learning teamwork, working well under pressure, and the importance of organization.
Anyway, if anyone has any experience writing resumes or reviewing them, I'd appreciate any suggestions or advice at all.
