While employers look for keywords on resumes and cover letters, they also listen intently for keywords during job interviews. Here's the first book to focus on how to use keywords in the critical job interview.
Book was published in 2004. Not really relevant for me as I am a tech professional. They go over keywords for various industries such as healthcare, hospitality, or retail. Last chapter goes over action verbs, high impact phrases, (such as 'Best in Class' or 'Driving innovation') and personality descriptors. These are probably lists that you can also find online.
