How to Write Professional Experience on a Resume (Step-by-Step Guide)

Описание: Most law enforcement resumes fail for one simple reason: they list duties, not impact.

In this Heroes Academy lesson, you’ll learn exactly how to write a Professional Experience section that translates your law enforcement career into results-driven language that recruiters and hiring managers actually care about—whether you’re staying in public safety or transitioning to the private sector.

This section of your resume is where you tell the story of your career:
• The challenges you faced
• The actions you took
• The measurable results you delivered

In this video, I walk you through:
✔ What hiring managers really want to see in your Professional Experience section
✔ How to structure each role using the CAR method (Challenge – Action – Result)
✔ How to quantify your law enforcement experience with numbers and metrics
✔ Strong action verbs that replace weak, outdated resume language
✔ Real, law-enforcement-specific resume examples you can model immediately

You’ll also see:
• Before-and-after bullet point examples
• How to format roles clearly and consistently
• Common resume mistakes officers make—and how to fix them
• How to tailor your experience for private-sector roles without losing credibility
