I greatly disagree with seeallsides. You want to show the big 4 that you are extremely professional, and while those ideas are creative, they are not the most professional.
Some tips:
1. Don’t use a template you find online and just fill it out. They can tell, and it looks silly.
2. Use very strong adjectives and verbs to describe your tasks and responsibilities
3. Explain your roles quantitatively. For example, “managed team of 6”, “responsible for 4 reports, including ___”, etc.
4. Prepare a cover letter explaining why you are fit for the position. Make sure that this is not a generic cover letter, and that it shows why you are specifically interested in THEIR company and how you would be a great asset to them.
Hope this helps.
