How to write it

  • Your resume is itself a marketing artifact. A sloppy one disqualifies you faster than in any other field.
  • Attribute results: 'grew organic traffic 120% in 9 months' or 'managed $80K/month paid budget at 3.2x ROAS'.
  • Name your stack: HubSpot, Google Analytics, Meta Ads Manager. Mirror the posting's tools.
  • Show range: one brand campaign, one performance campaign, one retention win.

Common questions

Should a marketing resume be visually designed?

Polished, yes; overdesigned, no. It still needs to parse in an ATS, so keep structure clean and let typography do the work.

How do I show ROI?

Use the metrics your channels produce: ROAS, CAC, conversion rate, traffic growth, pipeline influenced.

Agency vs in-house experience: how to frame it?

Agency shows range and pace; in-house shows depth and ownership. Frame whichever you have as the strength it is.
