Fictional example for illustration — names, employers and numbers are invented, but every bullet follows the honest formula: action + scope + verifiable result. Never copy claims you can't defend in an interview.
Dollar values size you instantly
Contract values are how construction hiring reads seniority — "$8M-$28M ground-up" places you on the org chart before the second bullet. Always give the range.
Variance numbers beat "on time and on budget"
Everyone claims on-time/on-budget; "average 1.8% under across six projects" and "change orders below 4%" are auditable and therefore believed.
Safety record is a pass/fail check
EMR and lost-time history get verified in prequalification. A zero-LTI streak with the labor-hour denominator is the strongest line a field-side PM can carry.
