Where your resume has these sections. A section your resume does not have is not added.

Mistakes that cost interviews

  • Soft skill claims without scores
  • Relationship words without outcomes
  • Revenue effects attached to support work

Evidence that counts in customer success and support

  • Retention and renewals for success roles, as documented
  • Book of business size and segment
  • Ticket volume, resolution and satisfaction for support roles
  • Escalations and technical work
  • Tools used

Use what your resume already shows. A line without a number can still be strong when it says clearly what you did and where.

These are common reading conventions drawn from hiring guides and career services, not rules every employer follows.
