Check My Resume GrammarWhy resume grammar is different
Resume writing has its own grammatical conventions that differ from standard business writing. Generic grammar tools often flag correct resume style as errors — or miss actual resume-specific mistakes.
Sentence fragments are correct
Bullet points on a resume intentionally omit subject pronouns. 'Managed a team of 12' is correct. A generic checker may flag this.
Tense consistency matters
Current roles use present tense; past roles use past tense. This rule must be applied consistently across every bullet.
Parallel structure in bullets
Every bullet under a role should start with the same grammatical form — typically a strong action verb in the same tense.
Avoiding first-person pronouns
Resumes should never use 'I', 'my', or 'we'. Our checker specifically catches these common errors.
Hyphenation rules
Compound modifiers need correct hyphenation: 'cross-functional team' not 'crossfunctional team'. Easy to miss, signals attention to detail.
Number formatting
Consistency in how you write numbers (spell out 1–9, use numerals for 10+) signals professionalism and polish.
