Resume keywords

Product Manager resume keywords

Discovery, roadmapping and prioritization, the analytics tools, and launches that moved a metric. These are the terms recruiters search the ATS for, written the way postings write them.

Tools, systems and languages

  • Jira
  • Amplitude
  • SQL

Skills and methods

  • Product Roadmapping
  • Product Discovery
  • A/B Testing
  • Stakeholder Management

Domain knowledge

  • User Experience Research
  • Product Strategy

How to use them

  • Use the posting's exact wording. If it says a term one way, write it that way at least once.
  • Write the full credential with its acronym: "Project Management Professional (PMP)"
  • Tie each launch to a metric: adoption, revenue, cycle time, on-time delivery
  • State scope: team size, budget, number of stakeholders or workstreams
  • Only list what is true for you. A keyword you can't back up in an interview costs more than it gains.
