Hi All,
I am working as an Admin Exec. In a recent interview, I was asked to create a responsibilities table related to my current job, which describes my job responsibilities briefly, as mentioned in my resume. Is there any format available? I am not sure how I can describe those points concisely.
Thank you.

Understanding Job Responsibilities vs. Daily Activities
There is a common mistake that 99% of people make while preparing their resumes. Like many others, you mention job responsibilities in your resume. Job responsibility is actually what is expected of you for the position you are being offered or currently working in, whereas most people interpret it as what they are actually doing. Both concepts are entirely different.
Shikhar Dhawan's job responsibility is to start the innings, make runs, and provide a good start for India. However, what he actually does is get out after scoring 10 or 15 runs, often within the first 2 or 3 overs. I hope you understand my point.
Regarding your query, I believe the interviewer is inquiring about your daily activities rather than what is expected of you. There is no specific format for these responses, but I recommend detailing all the tasks you perform regularly, their impact on your company's overall business, and their significance. Remember to emphasize any achievements resulting from your duties. For instance, as an Admin Executive, you may have reduced the electricity bill by 5% by turning off unnecessary lights during the day or repaired old furniture for reuse instead of purchasing new chairs. Provide more examples like these.
The purpose of such questions is to comprehend your perspective on the role and the initiatives you have taken to enhance processes.
Please let me know if you need further assistance.
