Where, What, How?

I ve been working at Turkish Court of Accounts (TCA) for the last 5 and half years.
TCA is the equivalent of Government Accountability Office (GAO) of the USA. A very prestigious job in Turkey, to give you an idea, when we go to a province for an audit assignment, before starting work we visit provincial governor, mayor etc; we are assigned chauffeured cars, whole nine yards.
My job also is related to practice of law, since what I do is checking whether transactions are made and financial statements were prepared according to applicable laws and regulations; if not, ask the responsible party for their defense and prepare a report including my opinion and the defense, which is then tried at TCA. So kind of a financial prosecutor.
But when I put this stuff in my personal statement, the adjectives used for the final result include, but are not limited to:
- Boring
- Pretentious
- Douchey
- Crap
So my question is, what is the best way of giving info about my job and how it constitutes a significant WE? If its PS, I am failing at it. Hralp!
