Actions are fine but if you are not able to quantify the results, the whole process would be ineffective. So quantify the results by asking the following questions;
1) What was the revenue that I was able to generate for my company?
Ask your project manager for details. Most managers will have a good idea about the return on investment of each employee (if you are in a situation where you do not want to reveal your MBA plans, provide a rough estimate).
2) Did my team's contribution help my company get new projects?
This information would be available through project managers.
3) Did you get any personal testimonials from the client, appreciating your contribution?
For technical candidates, focus less on the technicalities that you have implemented but instead write about the project management aspect of your contribution and the impact your work had on customers.
