Why this matters

Consulting resumes have their own grammar — firm, client industry, project scope, and outcome, usually in that exact order. Generic builders mangle the structure and bury the client impact that screens you into the next round.

Section order

Put the right things at the top.

Hiring managers for management consultants read top-down and stop early. We surface the sections they care about first.
