The Perfect Resume Structure
Not sure how to structure your resume?
Here’s our tried-and-tested resume layout :
- Choose the right resume format or pick a template. If you’re formatting your resume yourself, follow the reverse-chronological format and make sure to follow the right layout rules. Alternatively, you can use one of our premade resume templates and not have to worry about formatting your resume one bit.
- Add relevant contact details and make sure they’re mistake-free. You shouldn’t be missing information such as your full name and job title, e-mail address, and where you’re based. Optionally, you can also include some relevant social media profiles, such as your LinkedIn.
- Include a resume summary or a resume objective. Done right, a resume summary will show the hiring manager you’re a relevant candidate from the get-go and have them read the rest of your resume.
- List your work experience, placing special focus on your achievements. Your work experience becomes more meaningful if you include your achievements in your past roles and manage to make them quantifiable.
- Mention your top soft and hard skills. List any skills you have that are relevant to the job you’re applying for in a seperate section.
- Keep your education section short and concise. Unless you’re an entry-level candidate with little-to-no work experience, keep your education section short and to the point.
- Leverage optional sections like “Languages,” “Certifications,” or “Hobbies and Interests.” Fill up the rest of your resume space with optional sections that can highlight your strengths and qualifications as a candidate (e.g. foreign languages you speak, certifications you’ve obtained over the years, or your hobbies and interests).
3 Examples of Resume Formats
#1. reverse chronological resume format.
This resume format highlights your experience and key professional achievements by listing your latest position and acquired skills first. It’s the most popular resume format among recruiters and the one we advise job seekers to use in 99% of cases.
#2. Functional Resume Format
A functional resume , also known as the skill-based resume, is a resume format that focuses on your professional skill test as opposed to work experience. You’re better off using a functional resume if you’re a recent graduate with no work experience, if you’re switching careers, or if you have a long employment gap .
#3. Hybrid Resume Format
A combination resume combines the two traditional resume formats: the reverse-chronological resume and the functional resume.
As such, this format places emphasis on a candidate’s skills and work experience.

Essential components of a resume in 2024
If your resume doesn’t contain the right sections, you’ll likely be passed over in favor of other applicants. Here are the essential components to include on your resume in 2024:
Header: The resume header is found at the top or on the side of your resume. Its main purpose is to keep your name and contact information handy so the employer can easily set up an interview with you. The header also adds a touch of attractive formatting to your resume.
Professional Summary: The resume summary consists of 3-4 sentences that convey your top skills, experiences, and accomplishments. The goal of the summary is to catch the hiring manager’s attention and encourage them to keep reading your resume.
Employment History: This is the place to list your previous positions , along with bullet points that explain your duties, accomplishments , and the skills used in each job.
Education : Your education section lists degrees and diplomas in order to give the employer a sense of your background and qualifications for the role.
Skills: The skills section is the place to highlight your unique attributes or areas of expertise . Make sure to focus both on hard skills (technical knowledge) and soft skills (personality traits.)
Choosing the right resume example format
When it comes to choosing the right resume format , it’s important to think about the amount of experience you have to show, the type of job you are applying for, and the hiring manager’s expectations.
Here are three different resume sample formats to choose from:
Chronological resume format :
The chronological — also known as reverse chronological — resume format is the “standard” structure that most hiring managers will expect to see. This format focuses on the employment history section, where you can list previous positions and create bullet points that explain your key qualifications for the role. We recommend this format as the best choice for professionals and anyone with at least three previous jobs to show.
Functional resume format
The functional resume format is best-suited to students and first-time job seekers because it places less emphasis on previous experience. Instead, your resume begins with the skills section, where you can describe your key attributes and how you’ve applied those skills in other experiences.
Combination resume format
The combination, or hybrid, resume format is exactly what it sounds like — a combination of the previous two resume formats, which offers maximum flexibility when assembling your resume. This format is best suited to freelancers and other independent professionals.
Not sure which format to choose? Within our resume builder, you can create and save different versions of your resume so that the right format is always at your fingertips.

5 Quick tips on using resume examples
Resume examples and templates are a great resource for building your resume, but it is important to think of them as a guideline, not a perfect match.
Tip #1. Customize your resume with the most important professional information specific to you. Your goal should be to catch the eye of the hiring manager/recruiter with the content of your unique resume.
Tip #2. Use keywords (skills) to make your resume unique to you. Before sending your resume out to each company, take a close look at the job post to which you are applying. Ask yourself: What are the most important qualifications for this job? Which skills or keywords are mentioned more than once?
Tip #3. Once you determine those keywords, add them to your own resume where they apply. Keywords are crucial for getting past applicant tracking systems (ATS), a software used by most major companies to search and organize your resume based on keywords. Many times, your resume will never be seen by the hiring manager/recruiter if it is not optimized for ATS.
Tip #4. Always use measurable accomplishments! This creates more impact and tells the recruiter or hiring manager what you have done and what you can bring to the company.
Tip #5. Save your time and use Jobscan’s Resume Scanner to help you automatically identify the most important keywords for you and get past the ATS.
Pro Tip: Always tailor your resume to the specific job you are applying for!

Frequently Asked Questions About Resumes
How do you write a good resume.
Brainstorm your positive career experiences, then choose the most relevant ones to feature on your resume. Divide your information into distinct sections (like professional experience, education, or key skills), and use each section to show you can excel in your target job. Also write a brief profile summary of your top qualifications. Tailor your resume to each job application, using keywords from the job posting. Your resume should include your contact information, profile, experience, education, and key skills.
How long should a resume be?
For most people, a resume should be between one to three pages long , but it depends on your job goals and experience. Your resume should include relevant information, but not so much that it overwhelms recruiters and hiring managers.
What is the best resume format?
A reverse chronological resume format is widely accepted as the industry standard and is the best resume format for most job seekers. With a reverse chronological format, your most recent and relevant experience is at the top.
How many jobs should you list on a resume?
List all relevant job experience on your resume. A good rule of thumb is to include your three most recent jobs and go back as far as 15 years.

Your Step-by-Step Guide to Making the Perfect Resume (With Examples!)
Your resume is arguably the most valuable piece of paper for your career. But this document can be daunting for many. Maybe you’re not sure how to fit in all your information onto one page. Maybe you’re not sure about the right way to format and write your resume. Maybe you don’t even know what the heck a resume is!
Whatever your concern, we’ll break down everything you need to know about making the perfect resume, from scratch.
What Is a Resume?
What are employers looking for in a resume.
- Pick Your Format
- Start With Your Basic Information
- Add in Your Work Experience
- Consider Including Volunteer Work or Other Experience
- Don’t Forget Your Education
- Top It Off With Some Skills and Interests
- Write a Resume Summary Statement (if Relevant)
- Tailor It to the Job (and the ATS)
- Edit and Refine It
What Are Some Examples of a Good Resume?
A resume is a summary of your career, whether yours is just getting started or has been going on for years. Coming in at around one page in length (two only under specific circumstances), it showcases the jobs you’ve held and currently hold, the responsibilities you’ve taken on, the skills you’ve developed, and the qualities you bring to the table as an employee. Together, those things make it super easy for any hiring manager to see your qualifications and fit for a role.
For all the work you may put into writing one, hiring managers actually spend very little time—mere seconds in many cases—looking at your resume. But despite this sad fact, it’s safe to say that creating a great resume (rather than hastily throwing one together) still matters.
“If you miss the mark, your resume may never be read. Even worse, you might be removed from the applicant pool by a computer before a human even knows you exist,” says Muse career coach Heather Yurovsky , founder of Shatter & Shine. So you want to get it right because, as she explains, isn’t the goal to “spend less time looking for a job and more time in a role you love?”
You might be wondering if you can lean on your LinkedIn profile instead of writing a resume. The answer, sadly, is no. Most hiring managers still expect you to submit a resume, even if they also look at your LinkedIn. Even if you don’t need a resume for a job you’re applying for now, you’re going to need one at some point in your career—they’re not anywhere close to going out of style. So it’s best to always have one at the ready should an opportunity pop up.
And although LinkedIn has plenty of benefits, a resume has one clear advantage: While your LinkedIn is usually a broader picture of your career trajectory, your resume gives you the opportunity to tailor your career story to a specific role or company (more on that later).
Oh, and you’ve probably heard of something called a CV? It’s slightly different from a resume , and usually more common with academics and job seekers outside the U.S.
Hiring managers look for three things on your resume, “What did you do? Why did you do it? And what was the result?” says Muse career coach Martin McGovern , owner of Career Therapy. “If you can answer all three of these questions in...your resume bullet points, you’re going to be on the right track.”
Clear, easy-to-understand language is key. “The truth is that most resumes make no sense. They are stuffed with jargon, they are too technical, and they are filled with redundancies. Try to read a resume that isn’t yours and you will quickly realize that it feels like an alien wrote it,” McGovern adds. Put yourself in the shoes of a recruiter who has no idea how your role works—how can you make your resume accessible to them?
The hiring manager also cares about more than just you and you alone—they care about you in relation to them. “Hiring managers want to see if a candidate matches the requirements” of the role they’re hiring for, Yurovsky explains. “Your resume should paint this picture so the hiring manager not only knows what day-to-day responsibilities you can handle, but why you, above other[s], bring value to their organization.”
How Do You Write a Resume?
Whether you’re someone who’s never written a resume in your life, or you need a nice, thorough refresher on the process of creating one, follow these steps to go from a blank page to a complete—and dare I say beautiful—document.
Related: This Free Worksheet Makes It Easy to Create (or Update) Your Resume
1. Pick Your Format
Before you start typing one single thing, you have to decide what you want the overall resume to look like.
Resume builders can be helpful for this step—they’ll take all your basic information and organize it for you, eliminating some of the legwork. You can also use a pre-made outline, such as one of these free Google Docs templates .
But it’s often safest to start with a clean slate all on your own and eventually upgrade to a more advanced layout. (If you'd still like a place to write all the relevant information before you get started, check out our resume outline .) This allows you to course correct, edit and re-edit, and choose a resume format that best fits your particular situation (after all, not everyone has a career trajectory that’s easy to compartmentalize).
In general, you’re most likely to cover and/or include sections on the following:
- Your work experience
- Your non-work experience, including professional organizations, community involvement, or side projects
- Your education and certifications
- Your skills (specifically hard skills) and interests
So how do you format and organize all of that information?
By far the most common (and safest, if you’re not sure which route to take) option is reverse chronological order . This means you organize your experiences from most recent to least recent. So your work experiences would go above your education, and your current role would go above previous roles you’ve held. This of course has its exceptions—maybe you went back to grad school between jobs, or your most recent role is irrelevant to the job you’re applying for. So the whole page may not be exactly in reverse chronological order depending on your situation. It’s just a guideline.
There’s also something called a functional or skills-based resume . This is used pretty rarely, mainly with career changers and those with limited or complicated work histories. It gets its name because it’s primarily about listing your skills rather than experiences, and showcases them above your work history and education.
You can also opt for a combination resume , which is a mix between a reverse chronological resume and skills-based resume. It highlights your skills at the top, but allows just as much room below to cover your job and school experience.
Use caution when choosing these two formats: “Combo and skills-based [resumes] can be hard to follow, because [they force] the reader to hunt for connections between your skills and experience, and [don’t] provide the full context of your work,” says Muse Career Coach Angela Smith , founder of Loft Consulting. “I’ve also heard a lot of recruiters say that they automatically discount skill-based resumes because they feel the candidate is trying to hide something. I don’t necessarily believe that, but I think it’s important for job-seekers to know that perception is out there.”
2. Start With Your Basic Information
Your contact information should always go at the top of your resume. In this header you’ll want to include anything that could be helpful for a recruiter to get in touch with you. Usually, this means adding in:
- Your full name (preferably the name you use across the web)
- Your phone number
- Your personal email address
You might also choose to include other basic information, such as your LinkedIn or personal website URL, your GitHub (for technical roles), your social media profiles (if relevant to the job), or your address. If you’re looking to move for a job, you may choose to leave out your address or write “open to relocating” to better your chances of getting an interview.
The key is to make this part as clear as possible. If a hiring manager can’t reach you, there’s no point in perfecting the rest of your resume.
3. Add in Your Work Experience
This section will most likely be the bulk of your resume. Even if you’re changing careers, employers still want to see where you’ve worked, what you’ve done, and the impact of that work to get a sense of your background and expertise.
Your “Work Experience” might be one entire category, or you might choose to break it up into “Relevant Experience” and “Additional Experience” to highlight the jobs that are most important for hiring managers to focus on. Either way, you’ll almost always want to have your most recent experience at the top and your older experience down below.
Within your work experience, you’ll want to include each official job title, the company (and possibly its location), and the years you worked there. Below that, you’ll add in two to four bullet points explaining what you did in that job, the skills you built and exercised, the tools you used, and the results of what you did. If you accomplished a lot during your time there, focus on the responsibilities that made the most impact or you’re the most proud of, as well as the ones that best align you with the job you’re applying for (more on that in the following sections). It’s key here to list, if relevant, quantitative as well as qualitative accomplishments.
For example, you might write:
Associate Accountant, Finances and Co., Ann Arbor, MI September 2017 – Present
- Manage billing and invoicing for more than 50 clients, ensuring the deadlines and needs of our enterprise partners, including Big Company and Super Star Org, are met
- Collaborate closely with sales, account management, and project management teams on project setup, maintenance, and invoice management
- Assist in the streamlining of invoicing guidelines and procedures through documentation and the implementation of new software, resulting in an average two-week decrease in total time spent per client
Your resume bullets should be in past tense if you’re referring to past jobs and present tense if you’re talking about your current roles. In addition, your bullets should always start with a strong action verb that best describes what you did. And if you have examples of your work, consider hyperlinking them here as well.
If you have a ton of experience and this category is starting to run long (read: over one page), consider kicking out your oldest jobs unless they’re super relevant to the job you’re applying for, or extra impressive for your field.
Not sure where to start? “It’s helpful to do a brain dump and create a document that has everything and anything you consider as experience or an achievement,” says Yurovsky. From there, she explains, you can start to whittle down what is and isn’t important. And you can refer to this document later if you ever decide to update your resume for a specific role.

4. Consider Including Volunteer Work or Other Experience
Anything you’ve done that’s not work experience—your side gig, volunteer work, special projects—can be hosted under clearly-labeled sections (“Volunteer Experience” or “Activities,” for example). Depending on how robust your work experience is, these things may be worth including, particularly if they’ve helped you level up your skill set or better align you with your dream job. Plus, they make you look that much more well-rounded, passionate, and hardworking.
If you’re a recent grad, you might also build out a section for on-campus activities, such as clubs, organizations, or leadership experience. This can be a great supplement if you’re lacking in the jobs department. You can frame these just as you would professional jobs—including your title, the organization’s name, and bullets describing what your role was and what you accomplished.

5. Don’t Forget Your Education
If you’re still in school or just graduated, your education can go at the top of your resume, but for pretty much everyone else, this goes near the bottom. Most people include their school, graduation year (for folks less up to about a decade out of school), major, and degree. Brand-new grads might also write in their GPA, honors and awards, study abroad, thesis, or other notable achievements. But keep this section super simple, as you don’t want it to take up too much space over your work experience.
It’s possible you have unique education experience, such as taking an online course or certification. If you did this specifically as a way to boost yourself within your industry, definitely include it. Again, list everything more or less reverse chronologically—so a grad school degree would go above an undergrad degree, and a more recent relevant online course would go above that.

6. Top It Off With Some Skills and Interests
The skills section of a resume gets a bad rap, but it’s just as important as the rest of the stuff you include. It’s a quick list a recruiter can scan to see if your skill set aligns with what they’re hiring for. And it’s super ATS-friendly (ATS stands for “applicant tracking system,” the robot that in some cases reads your resume before a human does) because it allows you to add in keywords the machine is scanning for.
Usually this section goes at the bottom of your resume, but in special cases—such as a skills-based resume or when someone’s switching fields—you may place it further up.
What exactly do you throw in here? You’ll want to list any hard skills and applications you’re familiar with (Photoshop, SEO, JavaScript, to name a few examples), and, if relevant, your level of expertise. Avoid including soft skills here, like time management or public speaking—save those for your bullet points instead.
Be strategic when filling in your skills. Don’t list things you actually couldn’t do at a high competence level (I’m looking at those of you who say you’re “great” at Excel), and maybe nix skills that are completely irrelevant to the job you want. For example, you may not even need to include Excel if you’re applying for say, a design position, unless it’s listed as a job requirement.
Maybe you’re thinking, I’m a really good volleyball player, but that’s not a “skill,” right? No, it’s not, but it is a hobby. Adding in a hobby section at the bottom of your resume is underrated, and frequently a smart choice. It can be a great conversation starter with a hiring manager, and it can show that you’re a good culture fit—or a culture add—for the company. Also, it’s just a nice way to add in some of your personality. So tack on a bullet point listing out some of your interests, such as hiking, rowing, or crafting (no more than five to seven work-appropriate verbs), and you’re all set here.
7. Write a Resume Summary Statement (if Relevant)
You may have heard of a resume summary statement . They’re not super common, but they can be useful to include near the top of your resume if you’re looking to add clarity or context to your resume. If you’re a career changer, you might find a summary statement helpful in explaining your leap and tying your experience to your new path. Or if you’re a more experienced professional, you can use a summary statement to highlight a theme that brings your career trajectory together.
Overall, you probably won’t need a summary statement if your career is pretty linear and your bullet points do a great job of emphasizing what you have to offer in terms of skills and experience. But if you think it makes sense to include one, “Take the time to think about what the person reading your summary wants to know before you write it,” says McGovern. “Good summaries explain why you do what you do and how it can help. For instance: Merging a background in ABC, I help companies improve XYZ through 123. Summaries shouldn’t be any more complicated than that.”
So, taking McGovern’s example, you might say:
Merging a background in social media marketing and PR with seven years in the consumer tech space, I help companies improve their internal and external communication and brand awareness through data-driven, quality content and strategies that align with the modern trends of the space.
Yurovsky adds that “you don’t want your summary statement to be a dense paragraph with too much information. You want it to be easy to read, concise, and memorable. Almost like a tagline.”

8. Tailor It to the Job (and the ATS)
Once you have your resume written out—you’ve broken down your work experience, tagged on some activities and additional experiences, and listed out your skills—it’s important to go back to the job description (or multiple job descriptions, if you’re applying to several similar jobs) and make sure that what your resume says matches up with the kind of candidate the employers are looking for. In other words, tailor it .
Let’s explain further. You’ll want to begin by tackling the ATS . This means combing the job description to see if individual words and phrases line up. What skills are they asking for, and have you listed them (so long as you actually have them)? What words are they using to describe their ideal hire, and do you use similar language in your resume?
Next, take a bird’s-eye view. If you were the hiring manager for the role, where on your resume would your eyes be drawn to? And what would you be looking for? Whatever you think will be most important for the recruiter, make sure it’s near the top of your resume, or otherwise emphasized.
Finally, dig into the role and responsibilities of the job. Does your resume reflect similar experience? If not, is there a way you can spin it so that it’s clear you’re capable of doing the job (and doing it well)?
These articles can help you if the word “tailoring” makes you start to sweat:

9. Edit and Refine It
Please, please don’t just write your resume and shoot it out without giving it a second glance. Hiring managers may not spend hours browsing it, but if there’s one thing that sticks out more than anything else it’s a glaring typo.
The best approach? Write a rough draft, then leave and come back to it later with fresh eyes to give it an edit.
Cover the basics: Is your contact information correct and updated? Are you using the right verb tenses? Does everything look consistent and accurate in terms of spelling and grammar?
Then do some cutting if your resume’s quite long. It’s no longer a hard-and-fast rule that all resumes must be only one page—but consider it a smart guideline for most applicants, especially if you've got less than 10 years work experience. The exception is if you’re very senior or very established in your career; in this scenario, a two-page resume isn’t completely out of the question. Everyone else, read this article for advice on how to cut your resume down.
Formatting-wise, it’s key to consider a couple things. First, what font are you using , and is it legible (for a human and a robot)? When in doubt, go with one of these simple, but sleek, options: Arial, Arial Narrow, Calibri, Cambria, Garamond, or Helvetica.
Second, are you going to save it as a Word document or PDF ? Neither option is wrong, although a PDF helps ensure that your formatting is maintained, no matter what type of computer the hiring manager uses to open the document.
Third, is your resume formatted in a way that it’s skimmable? If it’s feeling crowded or overrun with words, read this: 12 Tiny Changes That Make Your Resume Easy for Recruiters to Skim .
Once you’ve given it a few good looks, it may be worth sending it to a friend or colleague (or even a career coach ) to get a second opinion. Don’t just have them edit it for spelling and grammar—they should dig into your bullets and offer feedback on whether or not your resume is showing you in the best possible light (it’s smart to also send them the job description for something to compare it to).
Here’s the thing: Your resume won’t ever look exactly like someone else’s, nor should it. How you choose to format it, organize your information, and talk about specific experiences depends not just on your career path, but on your field, the job you’re applying for, the company that job is at, and more.
So there isn’t a universal way to do a resume. But there are common themes. To give you some context as to how yours might turn out, here are three examples of different kinds of resumes.
The Most Popular: A Reverse Chronological Resume
As previously mentioned, a reverse chronological resume is preferred by many coaches and HR experts, mainly because it’s super readable. When everything’s in a clear order, it’s easy to skim and even easier to draw lines between experiences.
Who it’s good for: Just about everyone—from students applying to internships all the way up to senior-level executives (with an optional resume summary statement)

The Unorthodox Route: A Functional or Skills-Based Resume
Rather than listing out your experience in reverse chronological order, a functional or skills-based resume has bullet points that reflect how each of your skills is demonstrated by the work you’ve done over the course of your career. At the bottom, you’ll include everything else, such as your education, job history, professional achievements, community involvement, and other technical skills. This is a good option if you have a somewhat all-over-the-place work history and want to tie everything together neatly.
Who it’s good for: Career changers whose work experiences may not appear to be relevant and people with an abundance of temporary jobs or gaps in their work histories.
Download an Example Functional Resume for a Project Manager
The Creative Angle: An Infographic Resume or Resume Website
This resume type is characterized by how it’s formatted visually. You may choose a reverse chronological order or skills-based style to organize your information, but also use graphics, colors, unique fonts, and even multimedia elements to help that information pop. Keep in mind that any creative resume is still likely subject to an ATS—and certain elements may be unreadable by a robot. So consider going this route only if you know a human will be reading your resume (and that said human might enjoy it).
Who it’s good for: People applying to creative roles (designers, editors, writers, marketers, video producers, for example), startups, or fun companies, or to jobs where a creative resume is encouraged, if not required.

Your resume is a living, breathing document. So while you won’t go through this whole process every time you apply for a job, you should be thinking about all these things as you go to update your resume for your next career step. You might decide later on to switch up the order, or remove or add things, or even get creative and try out a whole new format. If you’re not getting the calls back you expect, you may decide to scrap it and start over —and that’s totally OK.
Regardless of where this piece of paper goes and how it grows, when you give it the care and attention it deserves, you set yourself up for success. And you’ll make it that much more likely that you’ll land an interview and get the chance to prove to the hiring manager—over the phone or in person—what you’ve got to offer.

What to put on your resume, contact information.
The goal of your contact information is to make it easy for an employer or hiring manager to learn more about you and be able to easily reach out if they are interested in your application.
Target Title
It's crucial to include a Target Title on your resume as a way to help recruiters or hiring manager identify you as a strong candidate. All Job Titles on your resume can be picked up by the Applicant Tracking System (ATS) and help show that you are a great fit for the specific role you are applying to.
Professional Summary
The Professional Summary is a key place for you to craft a compelling narrative of your relevant professional experience, skills, and accomplishments. Think of your summary as a teaser for the employer to read the rest of your resume. To maximize impact, aim to reference metrics and numbers where possible to emphasize the results you've delivered in previous roles.
Work Experience
Arguably the most important section on your entire resume, your Work Experience is what employers will ultimately spend the most time reviewing to determine if you're a qualified candidate. Focus on highlighting your most relevant and impactful accomplishments, relative to the specific role you're applying for. Your priority should be to tailor your work experience to align with the responsibilities of the position as much as possible.
Keep your education section clean and relevant by only including the schools / colleges / universities that really matter and relate to your profession and job search goals. Check if the job posting asks for a specific degree and make sure to highlight this in your resume, if applicable.
The skills section of your resume shows employers you have the abilities required for the role you are applying to. Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) will leverage the skills in your resume to assess how high of a match score your resume is to the job posting and prioritize higher matching resumes first.

Frequently asked questions about resume examples
What is a resume example, why should i use resume examples.
Using a resume example can help you with that initial writing block. You get a ready-made design and layout template to follow. The only thing that you should focus on is writing a good experience section , including your skills that best fit the job description, and ensuring that you’ve tailored your resume.
What should a resume look like in 2024?

Essential Resume Writing Tips
When organized correctly, words can press all the right buttons and motivate action. That is persuading a hiring manager to call you in for a job interview .
So are you ready to improve your resume, and by that, we mean raising the roof on the results you are getting out of every job application you dispatch? Let’s make this happen.
Tailor your resume to each position and company to which you’re applying by highlighting the skills and experience you have that match the desired skill set. Be sure to showcase achievements and accolades you may have received in previous jobs and how those can transfer over to the desired position.
Certified Senior HR Consultant Arizona, United States
Step 1: Decide on the optimal resume format .
Resumes and CVs come in different shapes:
– The chronological resume format – the classy one. Lay out all your information in reverse chronological order. Best suited for anyone with a coherent, long-ish career history.
– The functional resume format – drop the timeline and place your skills and experience in the limelight. Best suited for recent graduates , students, interns and anyone changing fields or having employment gaps .
– The combination resume format is a mix of the previous two. It lays out the skills themes, complemented by career/education information. Best suited for startup job applicants, and experienced professionals with transferable skills who want to change industries.
The majority of resume samples we provide use chronological resume format as it’s always a “safe” choice.
Step 2: Get Your Contact Info Sorted Out.
Here are a few tips to nail your contact information on a resume.
– List your first, then the last name. You can drop the middle name if you want to.
– Get a professional email and list it.
– Add a personal or business cell phone number.
– Add a link to your LinkedIn profile, but only if it’s glossed up and up-to-date.
The don’ts:
– Drop the mailing address. It’s necessary in today’s connected world.
– Don’t add a home landline number.
– Unless you are applying to a job in another state/country, don’t include your personal address.
– Add a title – if you are applying to a more hip company, add a brief title or personal branding statement next to your name. Example: Joanna Eliason – Social Media Manager; Columnist at Forbes, INC and HBR.
– Add social media links – Twitter is fine if you are active there, as well as account links to niche professional communities such as GitHub (for software developers) or Dribble (for designers).
– Link to your website, blog or portfolio. Only makes sense if you are writing professionally and/or have some work to showcase there. If you run a hobbyist blog, about gardening and applying for a managerial position, your employer doesn’t need to know this.
Step 3: Craft a resume objective or professional summary.
On top of your resume, include a quick paragraph explaining who you are and what you can offer to the organization. Writing resume objectives and summaries are a bit of an art, so check our more detailed guide on this.
Step 4: Jot down your work experience section.
This will be the “meat” of your resume. Make sure that you spend enough time laying out the best bits here. Here are the essential resume writing tips for the work experience section:
– List achievements, instead of duties and responsibilities for each position.
– Add some bragging rights and accomplishments (backed with numbers when possible)
– Tailor your resume to every job posting and add relevant resume keywords taken from job descriptions.
– Spice it up with some resume power words .
Need more help? Hop to our ultimate guide to writing a resume .
When writing a resume, utilize metrics and supporting data whenever possible to show hiring managers not simply WHAT you have done but instead HOW WELL you have done it. Providing high-impact context to experience conveys immediate value to the employer.
Career Consultant, CPCC, CPRW Colorado, United States
Step 5: Showcase your educational background.
Present what you have learned at school, what degrees, certifications and coursework you have completed and how all of this makes you a better candidate than others!
Step 6: Sprinkle the skills.
Again, refer to the job posting to make a list of desirable skills . Next, add those strategically in your resume and highlight the most important ones in a separate section. Be sure to curate both soft and hard skills .
And you are almost done! If you have some space left, you can also include an extra section on your resume that will mention your hobbies, volunteer work , industry awards and accolades.
Common Mistakes To Avoid When Writing a Resume (and Using Resume Samples)
Resume samples are a great way to get some direction for your job application. But, by no means, you should blindly copy-and-paste an example without giving it many thoughts.
Do “copy” the overall resume format and style, and feel free to pick out some phrases you like. But don’t submit a recycled resume to every job application in your industry.
The biggest resume mistake job seekers make is forgetting to customize.
And to make your resume bullet-proof here’s an additional checklist highlighting the most common resume writing mistakes:
1. Typos and grammatical errors . No one likes sloppiness. Always double proofread your resume.
2. Getting too lengthy. Try to keep your resume to one page. Two pages are fine for experienced pros going after exec positions. Do not include outdated information from ages ago.
3. Going superfluous. Don’t make claims you cannot bake with data/examples. Also, don’t inflate your title to appear “more important” or “experienced”.
4. A poor resume summary can kill your application immediately . Writing a resume objective which doesn’t match the job or a career summary that doesn’t match the job requirements are major blunders.
5. No action verbs . Be bold and decisive! Use power words, action verbs and active voice.
6. Visually busy resumes will not get read . Get a professional resume template that is easy-to-read and skim.
7. Incorrect contact information. Re-check your phone number and email!
8. Listing irrelevant, generalistic duties. You must show your accomplishment, and key skills that are related to the job, not some general filler statement that no one will read into.
Psst... Maybe You Also Need a Resume Template to Wrap Your Texts?
It’s so much easier to write a resume when you have a sample in front of you…plus a professional resume template where you just fill in the gaps. Save yourself heaps of time by using a premade template instead of struggling with a layout in Word.

Do you need to write a professional resume? If you’re staring at a blank page and have no idea where to begin, resume examples can help get you started writing a resume that will help you get hired.
We’ve created sample resumes for jobs ranging from entry-level positions to executive and management roles. You’ll find examples for every skill level, many professions, and several different resume formats.
Take notes as you browse the examples. This will help you remember what you like and dislike and which elements you want to include when you begin writing your own.
The first step to writing a great resume is to choose the best type of resume for your work history, experience, and the jobs you're applying for.
How can you choose the right format for you? Keep in mind your strengths and weaknesses as a candidate, and then select the resume type that highlights the former and minimizes the latter. For example, if you have a gap in your work history , you might use a functional resume to emphasize your skills over your linear experience.
Comprehensive, Targeted, and Teaser: Every job seeker needs a comprehensive resume with a current and detailed work history, a targeted resume with your most relevant experience, and a one-page teaser showcasing your most in-demand qualifications.
Chronological Resume : The traditional resume format focuses on your work experience and lists previous jobs in order.
Functional Resume : Focuses on your skills and expertise with less of an emphasis on whicih companies you worked for and when.
Combination Resume : Combines the elements of chronological and functional resumes to highlight both your skills and previous employment.
Targeted Resume : Write a resume tailored to the specific position you're applying for.
Mini Resume : Not everyone in your job search needs see a full-length resume. Use the example to write one that's brief and to the point.
Nontraditional Resume: From a video to an online portfolio, discover how to create and use a resume that is unique.
Every job seeker's experience and goals are different, and it's important to add sections to your resume that highlight what makes you the best candidate . In these resumes, you will find examples of specific sections that can help you direct a hiring manager's attention to what you feel is most important.
- Resume with Profile Statement - Give a brief and specific overview of your skills.
- Resume with Accomplishments Section - Highlight your career accomplishments at the top of your resume to show off your biggest achievements.
- Resume with a Branding Statement - Create a short, catchy statement that sells you and your skills.
- Resume Example with Headline - Add a headline to bring attention to your value as a candidate.
- Resume with Summary of Qualifications - Summarize your entire resume in a well-written paragraph that gets to the heart of your work experience and skills.

How to write a good professional resume
An unprofessional resume can negatively impact your chances of landing a job. Bad resumes create a poor first impression, suggesting that you lack attention to detail, professionalism, and effort. Plus, Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) can filter out resumes that aren’t formatted correctly, meaning that your resume won’t even reach a human recruiter.
A good resume gets you to the job you want. In this article, Remote shares how to write a good resume that gets you hired with the employer you want to work for.
What is a good professional resume
What to include in a professional resume, get noticed with remote talent .
A good resume is a professional and well-organized document tailored to the specific job you’re applying for. It’s a concise summary of your relevant work experience, skills, and accomplishments in a clear format.
A strong resume uses action verbs, quantifiable achievements, and industry-specific keywords to demonstrate your qualifications. It avoids unnecessary details or overly complex designs, focusing instead on readability and ATS compatibility. The resume should be error-free, easy to navigate, and presented in a clean layout so that both human recruiters and ATS can quickly identify the value you bring.
There is an expected format for resumes to ensure clarity, readability, and compatibility with both human recruiters and ATS. Recruiters typically spend only seven to nine seconds scanning a resume, so including standard content makes it easier for them to notice your expertise.
Here are 5 must-have sections to include in your resume to pass the ATS test and get hired by top employers:
1. Contact information
Your contact information is the first thing that both recruiters and Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) look for in a resume.
Your contact information section should include your full name, personal phone number, professional email address, and optionally a link to your LinkedIn profile. You don’t need to share your full address — protect your personal information, and share only high-level information like the city you live in.
2. Professional summary
A professional summary section is a snapshot of why you’re a strong candidate for the role. Position this section at the top of your resume to grab a recruiter's attention quickly.
Include a summary that’s two or three sentences long that highlights your key qualifications, skills, and career goals, tailored to the specific job you’re applying for. Don’t forget to include keywords in the job description so the ATS sees you as a qualified candidate. A professional summary section also encourages a human recruiter to spend more time on your resume.
3. Work experience
In the work experience section of your professional resume, list your jobs in reverse-chronological order, starting with your most recent or current position.
For each entry, include the job title , the company name , the location , and the dates of employment . Beneath this, use bullet points to describe your responsibilities and achievements in each role. Focus on quantifiable accomplishments, using metrics like percentages, revenue growth, or project completion rates to show the impact you had in your previous roles.
For example, “led a team of ten people, resulting in a 20% increase in project efficiency over six months" is more effective than “managed a team of ten people.”
Again, tailor your work experience to the specific job you're applying for by including keywords and responsibilities that align with the job description. Avoid listing every single task you performed and instead emphasize key achievements that highlight your skills and qualifications. For readability, keep descriptions clear and concise, ideally using three to five bullet points per position.
A skills section on your professional resume should include both hard and soft skills, including technical proficiencies and interpersonal skills. Make sure to align this section with keywords from the job description to ensure ATS compatibility.
Begin by identifying the key skills mentioned in the job description, and then match them to your own abilities, ensuring they are tailored to the specific role. Organize your skills into categories if possible, such as "Technical Skills," "Communication," or "Leadership," to make them easy to scan. Be as specific as possible — for example, you can list proficiency in certain software or experience in project management to make a strong impression.
5. Education
Many employers include educational qualifications as a baseline requirement. An education section on your resume shows your commitment to learning and highlights relevant coursework, certifications, or honors that are relevant to the position.
An education section on your professional resume can especially help entry-level candidates, recent graduates, or those transitioning to a new field with little job experience but plenty of foundational knowledge. Even for experienced professionals, this section is valuable for highlighting industry-specific training that adds to your expertise.
List your most recent or highest degree first, including the name of the institution, the degree obtained, and the year of graduation. If you're currently pursuing a degree, mention it with an expected graduation date. Include relevant academic achievements, honors, or notable coursework if they align with the job you're applying for.
Follow these tips to write a professional resume that effectively highlights your qualifications and improves your chances of landing an interview .
1. Tailor your resume for each job
Finding a new job is time-consuming. You may be tempted to use the same resume for different employers. Avoid this rookie mistake.
Customize your resume for each job you apply to by aligning your skills and experience with the job description. Sharing your resume en masse with several companies won’t increase your chance of making it to the next step. If your resume does not have the keywords that a specific employer is looking for, you’re unlikely to pass the ATS test.
Pay attention to the specific language used in the job posting, including the required skills, certifications, or experience levels. Once you have a clear understanding of the role, adjust your resume to highlight your mo
2. Use clean formatting
Make sure your resume is easy to read with a clean, professional layout. Hiring managers prefer a professional resume with enough white space because it's easier to read and visually appealing. White space around the edges, between sections, and around individual elements creates balance and makes your resume easier to navigate.
Use standard fonts (e.g., Arial, Calibri or Times New Roman), consistent formatting, bullet points, and avoid using graphics or images that could confuse ATS systems. Avoid using too many colors, graphics, or elaborate designs, as these can be distracting or unprofessional.
Maintain a font size between 10 and 12 points for the body text. Use bold or slightly larger font sizes (14 to 16 points) for your name and section headings, ensuring they stand out but do not overpower the content. Maintain consistent spacing, including adequate margins (typically 1 inch on all sides) and clear separations between sections.
3. Proofread carefully
Good writing always includes proofreading. Start by carefully reading through your entire resume to catch obvious errors, including spelling mistakes, grammatical issues, or formatting inconsistencies. After your first review, focus on the finer details like dates, names, and job titles. Check whether your dates are consistently formatted, and company names and job titles are up to date.
Finally, it’s always a good idea to have a fresh set of eyes review your resume. Ask a trusted friend, mentor, or colleague to proofread it for you, as they may catch mistakes you’ve overlooked.
Reading your resume out loud to yourself can also help you identify awkward phrasing or unclear statements. This attention to detail will help you write a professional and error-free resume.
A professional resume includes all the important sections that an ATS and human recruiter is scanning for. A professional resume takes you one step closer to the job you want, like landing an interview with a recruiter.
