Replace task descriptions with the business problem, your action and a measurable result whenever possible.
Experienced-hire screeners need evidence of ownership, judgment and impact rather than a list of standard responsibilities.
Instead of 'responsible for forecasting,' explain that you redesigned forecasts and reduced error or improved a decision, using accurate metrics. If a metric is confidential, a credible range or percentage can be more useful than an unsupported absolute amount.
Rewrite your strongest bullets around a baseline, the decision you influenced and a measurable result, without revealing sensitive client data. Use consulting resume action words sparingly; numbers and your actual contribution matter more than dramatic verbs.
