How to put them in your resume (without keyword stuffing)

Mirror the posting, not this list

This table tells you what the market asks for; each application should mirror that specific description's wording. Paste the posting into Refynes and the AI Tailor rewrites your bullets around its exact keywords.

Attach every keyword to evidence

"Prospecting" in a skills list is weak. "Prospecting" inside an achievement bullet with a number is what convinces both the ATS and the recruiter.

Keep the formatting machine-readable

Single column for the parsing layer, standard section names, no tables or text boxes. Every Refynes template exports ATS-safe PDF and DOCX.
