I had this in my notes from a long time ago and I figured I should add it here. It came from when I was writing a resume.

Consider the CAR formula if you get stuck. CAR stands for Challenge, Action, and Result. Every accomplishment should include the problem or challenge, the action you took, and the stellar result of your hard work. You can also invert this formula by leading with the result. Starting a sentence with a dollar figure or percentage will garner more attention.
If you took some time to review the impact that your role has on the company, use those results in your resume to show that you understand your role and the impact that it had on the company. It's called having business sense and acumen.

There was also a STAR formula, but I don't feel like looking that up right now.
