Resume keywords by role
Start with the language in the actual job posting. Each guide shows common role signals, an evidence-safe rewrite direction, and formatting choices that keep the resume readable for recruiters and applicant tracking systems.
All role guides

Check the posting, then check your resume
A general role guide cannot replace the specific job description. Signal compares the two documents directly and keeps the paid rewrite bounded to facts already present in your resume.
