How this is counted: each open listing’s description and stated skills are checked, on whole words, against the same fixed skills vocabulary ROLIVA uses on its job pages and its monthly skills reports. A listing counts once per term. A mention is not a requirement, and the counts change as employers open and close roles.

One column, standard headings and real text: easy for a recruiter to scan and for an application system to read. Fill each bracket from your own record, and delete any section you have nothing true to put in.

Write evidence-based bullets
- Start with what you did. Open each bullet with a verb that names your own action: built, wrote, led, analysed, ran. Avoid “responsible for”.
- Add scope. Say for whom, how much or how often: the team, users, region or volume. Scope makes a duty into evidence.
- Show a result only if you can support it. A number is useful only when you could explain how it was measured. If you cannot, describe the outcome in words instead.
- Use the employer’s words where they are true. If a term in “What employers ask for right now” matches work you have done, use that wording in your skills and bullets. If it does not match your experience, leave it out.
