A resume detailing an applicant's work history and
education is extremely helpful to an employer who
is seeking a person for a specific job vacancy.

Here are some guidelines to follow in preparing your resume:
O Make it clear, concise and easy to read - and no Longer
than two pages
O The resume should be typed on 8 1/2" x 11" white paper
with enough white space to prevent a cluttered look
❑ Start with your name, address and phone number
❑ Next under a sub -heading "Work History" detail the
previousjobs you've held - in reverse date order
- that is, ast job first.
❑ Use a separate paragraph for each position and
precede it with the dates you held that position.
❑ State the job title, a brief description of the
responsibilities - and the results you achieved.
O The next section of your resume should come under the
sub -heading of "Education". Start with the highest
degree obtained or grade completed, followed by the
name of the institution at which you studied. Follow
this with previous educatioi, attainments. At the end,
list any specific instructional courses you have
attended in conjunction with your work.
❑ Under the sub-headiag "Affiliations", list memberships
and/or offices held in professional or industry
associations.
O Under the sub -heading "Personal Interests" list any
