How to write a project consultant resume

Craft a resume summary statement

Put a resume summary on the top of your resume to highlight your accomplishments. A resume summary sums up your experience and skills, making it easy for hiring managers to understand your qualifications at a glance. Here are some tips to write a strong, impressive resume summary:

Step 1: Start with your professional title, or the one you aspire to.

Step 2: Detail your years of experience in project consultant-related roles and your industry experience.

Step 3: What are your biggest professional wins? Here is your opportunity to highlight your strongest accomplishments by placing them at the start of your resume.

Step 4: Don't forget, your goal is to summarize your experience. Keep it short and sweet, so it's easy for recruiters to quickly understand why you're a great hire.

Hiring managers spend under a minute reviewing resumes on average. This means your summary needs to demonstrate your value quickly and show why you are the perfect fit for the project consultant position.

Please upload your resume so Zippia’s job hunt AI can draft a summary statement for you.

List the right project manager skills

Many resumes are filtered out by hiring software before a human eye ever sees them. A robust Skills section can let recruiters (and bots) know you have the skills to do the job. Here is how to make the most of your skills section:

Look at the job listing and skills listed. You need to include the exact keywords from the job description to get your resume in front of an actual human. Do you have those skills? Fantastic! Be sure to list them.
Include as many relevant hard or technical project consultant skills as possible for each job you apply to.
Be specific with the skills you have and be sure you are using the most up to date and accurate terms.

These five steps should give you a strong elevator pitch and land you some project consultant interviews.

Here are example skills to include in your “Area of Expertise” on a project consultant resume:

Customer Service
Project Management
Client Facing
Project Scope
Process Improvement
Healthcare
Data Collection
Financial Statements
Business Process
SharePoint

Windows
Strategic Plan
Sigma
R
Data Analysis
User Acceptance
Agile Project Management
PC
Microsoft Project
SQL Server

HVAC
SME
Business Development
Project Documentation
UAT
Management System
Visio
ERP
SDLC

How to structure your work experience

A work experience section is a vital part of your resume because it shows you have the experience to succeed in your next job.

Put your most recent experience first. Prospective employers care about your most recent accomplishments the most.
Put the job title, company name, city, and state on the left. Align dates in month and year format on the right-hand side.
Include only recent, relevant jobs. This means if you're a fairly experienced worker, you might need to leave off that first internship or other positions in favor of highlighting more pertinent positions.

How to write project consultant 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 project consultant 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 project consultant resumes:

Bachelor's Degree in accounting

Pace University, New York, NY

2009 - 2012

Bachelor's Degree in business

University of Central Florida, Orlando, FL

1994 - 1997

Highlight your project consultant 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 project consultant resume:

Project Management Professional (PMP)
Master Project Manager (MPM)
IT Information Library Foundations Certification (ITIL)
Certified Management Accountant (CMA)
Certified Information Technology Professional (CITP)
Certified Information Systems Auditor (CISA)
