Questions

Which keywords should an Account Executive resume include?

Pull them from the specific job description first. Across most Account Executive postings the recurring terms are Consultative selling, Discovery, Demo delivery, Proposal and pricing, Negotiation, Stakeholder mapping, plus tools such as Salesforce, Gong, DocuSign. ResumeScanner extracts the exact set from the JD you paste rather than relying on a generic list.

What match score is good for Account Executive roles?

Anything above 75% usually means your resume covers the required skills and the seniority band. Below 60% there is normally a real gap — missing Discovery or Salesforce experience — not just a wording problem. We show the reasoning behind the score so you can tell the two apart.

How do I quantify Account Executive experience?

Tie each bullet to one of ARR closed, sales cycle length, win rate. Even approximate figures beat none: reviewers read them as evidence you tracked outcomes.

Do MEDDIC Certification certifications matter for this role?

They rarely replace experience, but they break ties. When MEDDIC Certification appears in a JD's preferred list, our checker flags it as a missing keyword if your resume does not mention it.

Should I use a different resume for each Account Executive application?

Not a different resume — a re-aligned one. Titles vary (AE, Enterprise Sales Executive) and so do required tools. Re-running the check per JD takes seconds and normally surfaces two or three swaps worth making.
