With so many things to say in a résumé, how do you make it easy to read? Your structure may depend on what stage you are at in your career (looking for your first job, career change, etc.).
Regardless of your status, we suggest dividing the résumé into sections.
Here are some key sections to include:
Name and Contact Info - Introduce yourself with your name in bold and your address, email, phone number, and/or fax number
Objective - briefly describe what you hope to achieve in your new job
Statement of Faith - primarily for ministry positions
Skills - list your skills that are pertinent to the position for which you are applying
Work Experience - list at least your last three positions and outline your main responsibilities for each one
Education History - Give information on schools, dates you attended, what you studied, and if you received any degree/diploma
