Use this (master)piece of a document to keep all your list of achievements so that you can easily pick and choose what to put in your tailored resume!
This is a document I use to capture every single achievement or project I have ever put in my various resumes.
Remember, your resume should only be about 2 pages long because you really want to tailor your resume to that specific job description (eg. Job A).

By showing your most relevant projects skills for the job (Job A), you’re highlighting to the recruiter that you have these set of experiences specific to the role you’re applying for any not bombarding them with unnecessary and irrelevant information (other things you have done).
But what happens to the rest of the information that’s not useful for this particular job? It’d be a waste to just delete it right? What if this other information is actually useful for ANOTHER job (eg. Job B)?
And that’s where the ‘Master Copy Of Professional Achievements’ come in.
Use the database below to keep track of your achievements - so when the time comes for you re-create your resume for a specific job - you don’t have to build it from scratch ever again!
Simply pick and choose the relevant experiences for the job.
I've shared a template below and put in different portions to guide you on how to use the template - but it should be pretty straightforward!
After duplicating this sheet, feel free to delete the instructions above and use this page to keep track of all your achievements!
Happy updating 😀
