Using the Same Tense in a Resume

When writing a resume, it is advisable to use the same tense throughout the resume. For instance, if you use the phrases below, you are not using the same tense:

Created an employee handbook for new hires
Acting office manager during supervisor's vacations
Coordinate work flow from various departments

Instead, those phrases should be in the same tense, as shown below:

Created an employee handbook for new hires
Performed office manager duties as needed
Coordinated work flow between multiple departments

See the difference? When you phrase your words in the same tense, the employer can follow the flow of words much easier. In addition, it's more professional.
