Use these words with caution, without going too far. And do not exaggerate your achievements. Remember that you may be asked to comment on each phrase, provide factual evidence and also verify this data in past jobs.
Remember, the quality of using “strong” words is more important than their quantity. Carefully select the words that describe your work experience and make sure that you still find the necessary facts to describe your achievements. And these words will help you with this:

Creative
Organized
Sociable (in 90% of the resume!)
Team player
Extensive experience
Motivated
Responsible
Analytical thinking
Effective
Carried out activities ... (Oh, horror!)
Promotion
Contributed
Successful
Took part
Was engaged
Ensured compliance
