Are you looking to fine-tune your resume?  Go through your job descriptions and delete the two words "Responsible for" every time they appear. Good resume writing is tight, concise, and value-added.  "Responsible for" is none of those things.

Everyone is “responsible for” things in their roles.  It’s wasted space, wasted words, wasted time. You risk losing the reader’s interest. Take the opportunity to lead off with a verb that really tells the reader what you did.

Take a look at the following examples to see what a difference two less words can make:

Before:
Responsible for the overall design, implementation, communication, and administration of the Plan and ensuring it adheres to current regulations and supports the company’s objectives.  

After:
Design, implement, adminster, and coordinate communication for the Plan, ensuring adherence to current regulations and company objectives.

* * * * *

Before:
Responsible for answering phones, managing calendars, scheduling meetings, and organizing busy travel itineraries for managerial team.

After:
Answered high volume of calls, managed three executive calendars, scheduled sales meetings, and organized busy travel itineraries for managerial team.

* * * * *

Before:
Responsible for establishing centralized funding process for employee pretax contributions and loan repayments; thus ensuring contributions invest timely into participant accounts according. 

After:
Faciliated timely investment of contributions into participant accounts by establishing a centralized funding process for employee pretax contributions and loan repayments.

* * * * *

You get the idea. Cut to the chase and engage the reader in what you did, how you excelled, not just a listing of your responsibilities. This is an easy change that makes a big difference.

The botom line: you're writing a resume, not a job description. Get out there and sell yourself!
