Sample experience bullets

- Designed a complete brand refresh (logo, color system, typography, templates) for a SaaS startup, increasing brand recall by 40% in post-launch surveys.

Common mistakes
- Providing only a portfolio link without describing projects, roles, or outcomes on the resume itself.
- Using a heavily designed resume that breaks ATS parsing — keep it clean and let the portfolio shine.
- Listing software skills without connecting them to real project output.
- Omitting metrics: impression counts, conversion lift, or client satisfaction scores are persuasive.
