List the right project manager skills

Your Skills section is a place to list all relevant skills and abilities. Here is how to make the most of your skills section and make sure you have the right keywords:

You often need to include the exact keywords from the job description in your resume. Look at the job listing and consider which of the listed skills you have experience with, along with related skills.
Include as many relevant hard skills and soft skills as possible from the listing.
Use the most up to date and accurate terms. Don't forget to be specific.

These five steps should give you a strong elevator pitch and land you some medical billing clerk interviews.

How to structure your work experience

Your work experience should be structured:

With your most recent roles first, followed by earlier roles in reverse chronological order.
Job title, along with company name and location on the left.
Put the corresponding dates of employment on the left side.
Keep only relevant jobs on your work experience.

How to write medical billing clerk experience bullet points

Remember, your resume is not a list of responsibilities or a job description. This is your chance to show why you're good at your job and what you accomplished.

Use the XYZ formula for your work experience bullet points. Here's how it works:

Use strong action verbs like Led, Built, or Optimized.
Follow up with numbers when possible to support your results. How much did performance improve? How much revenue did you drive?
Wrap it up by explaining the actions you took to achieve the result and how you made an impact.

This creates bullet points that read Achieved X, measured by Y, by doing Z.

Here are great bullet points from medical billing clerk resumes:

Add an education section to your resume

The education section should display your highest degree first.

Place your education section appropriately on your resume. If you graduated over 5 years ago, this section should be at the bottom of your resume. If you just graduated and lack relevant work experience, the education section should go to the top.

If you have a bachelor's or master's degree, do not list your high school education. If your graduation year is more than 15-20 years ago, it's better not to include dates in this section.

Here are some examples of good education entries from medical billing clerk resumes:

High School Diploma

2013 - 2013

Bachelor's Degree in communication

University of Maryland - College Park, College Park, MD

2004 - 2007

Highlight your medical billing clerk certifications on your resume

Certifications can be a crucial part of your resume. Many jobs have required certifications.

Start simple. Include the full name of the certification. It's also good to mention the organization that issued the certification. Next, specify when you obtained the certification.

If you have any of these certifications, be sure to include them on your medical billing clerk resume:
