- Jan 12, '12 by GrnTeai'd suggest a few things. your sentence fragments are fine (though you could cut the number down by half to have greater impact) but they should all match in form-- parallel construction is pleasing to the eye and cognitive parts :d. e.g.,
- assertive and ethical
- comfortable
- skilled
- confident
- accomplished
- consistently demonstrate ((not adjectives! does not match!))
- familiar with
- proven ability ((not adjectives! does not match!))
likewise:
- assisted (verb)
- responsible (adjective)
- acted (verb)
- certified (adjective)
and so forth c all the other sectionsIheartmadison likes this. -
