The ARC Method

A writing framework

Built with the ARC Method

ARC templates for developers use Action, Result, and Count so sample lines stay clear and specific.

  • Action

    Start with a verb that describes what you did.

  • Result

    Add what changed because of that work.

  • Count

    Include a number when you have an accurate one.

Why choose ARC templates for Developers

Focuses on impact, not just duties

Each sample line starts with what you did, shows what changed, and includes a number when you have one. Example only: “Wrote code for the product” can become “Shipped a feature used by 12k monthly users, cutting load time 40%.” Use your own accurate details — results depend on your experience.

Easier to skim

Strong verbs and numbers are often easier to notice when someone is skimming. ARC templates place those details near the start of each sample line.

Clear prompts to get started

Each section shows what to write and how. Follow the prompts to fill in your experience step by step.

Useful across career stages

Whether you’re newer to the field or more experienced, you can use Action, Result, and Count — from tickets closed to systems shipped. Customize with what’s true for you.

Includes an ATS-friendly format

Clear job titles, standard sections, and specific skills can help applicant tracking systems read your file. An ATS-friendly version is included. Parsing and outcomes still vary by employer system.

A method you can reuse

Once you learn ARC, you can apply the same structure to future applications, LinkedIn updates, and interview talking points.

The ARC Method

A simple writing framework

Built with the ARC Method

ARC is a clear way to structure resume bullets: Action (what you did), Result (what changed), and Count (a specific number when you have one). We use this format in our templates and sample content so bullets read more clearly than vague duty lists.

Action

Start with a verb that describes what you did.

Result

Add what changed because of that work.

Count

Include a number when you have an accurate one.

Example only — use your own accurate details.

Before

Responsible for managing the company’s social media.

With ARC

Led a social media relaunch that grew followers 40% in 6 months.

A · Led R · Grew followers C · 40% in 6 months

Why we use it: it helps keep bullets specific and easy to skim. Results vary based on your experience, the role, and how you customize the content.

Not a blank template

Already written for software developers. You just make it yours.

Real developer content, not Lorem ipsum — so you can see what a software developer resume should include and just swap in your details.

  • Stack, projects, and impact placed where tech recruiters look first
  • Example bullets for features, bugs, and collaboration to adapt
  • Developer skills list: languages, frameworks, tooling, testing
  • Early-career version with projects and GitHub-friendly layout

How it works

Your words. A design that looks right.

Do it yourself — about an hour
