Of course I agree that you could really focus on highlighting accomplishments and word it a certain way to make it look more presentable

Maybe recruiters can help you to tweak a resume to make it more attractive for employers
Thanks divine, but I'm going to do what I think is best. I'm not lying about my actual responsibilities - just the results of my work. And I am not using this company as a reference.
