Grammar

Could you brush up these sentences, especially the vs its?

Hi, I’m writing a resume (first time in English). Could you help me to brush it up?

The below is an excerpt from the strength section. Would you read it through and correct grammatical mistakes, especially where I am using “the”s? Also I can’t be sure if the “ability”s is a proper word here.

Strength
Get thing done:
Have tried motor-racing, freelancing, studying abroad. Though, this kind of things test my abilities, I can be persistent and figure out how to archive the goal.

(Some other attributes here…)

All things combined, I see my best ability is solving problems, collaborating with other people. Looking back at my 10’s and 20’s, I had many opportunities to convince senior people and get them involved, because I was always working on projects that never come to the ends by myself. Through these experiences, I have learned not only how to ask and listen, but also quickly build a team and finish a project accordingly.

Thanks!

mitsuo23Have tried motor-racing

That is not a complete sentence, but a fragment. You also need a conjunction.

Singular/plural mismatch.

mitsuo23archive the goal.

You put it away in long-term storage?
