In desperate need of a resume critiqueHello.. If anyone could help critique my resume, I am trying to get a position as a lead or assistant manager in a warehouse, but not getting many calls. A previous supervisor had helped me with this but I don't think it's working. The ones I do get are entry-level warehouse that don't pay well at all. I am one course away from my associates, but the degree doesn't seem to interest employers either. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

It's good for a start. Let's improve: Keep in mind to use the right tense. For example, under the first bullet, the right tense would either be prepared or preparing. You can delete out "...within warehouse" from your third bullet as no employer would care what part of the building you did the work in. Doublecheck your last bullet. It doesn't make sense the way it reads right now. In your summary: What does supervisory role mean? Did you have the authority to hire, fire, set schedules. If you had a number of tasks, bullet them out. Try changing the second sentence to "committed to safety, quality and customer satisfaction." as it gets rid of three words of deadwood. Do you have any accomplishments? If so then you should throw them into the resume.
