To celebrate National Thesaurus Day this week, we’ve compiled a list of creative alternatives for some of the most common and generic resume words or phrases. Much has been written about the best and worst words to use on your resume with such limited space, word choice is essential to portraying yourself in a way that sets you apart from everyone else, and certain buzzwords come across as tired or trite to recruiters and hiring managers. Until the advent of the digital age, Roget’s Thesaurus was one of the most widely used lexicons of the English Language-a staple among writers, students, and virtually anyone who’s ever put pen to paper (or finger to keyboard). Thesaurus Day recognizes Peter Mark Roget (born on January 18, 1779), who published the Thesaurus of English Words and Phrases in 1852.
January 18 th is National Thesaurus Day: a chance to celebrate the complexity of words and the variety of creative ways to express yourself.
