Resume Template 8

[Full Name]

[This resume template section is often omitted in modern resumes. Whether or not to include it is up to you. But it might be better to start your resume with what you can do for employers, verses implying what they can do to help you meet your objective. Delete this section from the resume template if you don't use it. Otherwise, describe your career goal in one to three brief sentences. For specific job openings, tailor your objective (and your entire technical resume) to closely match each job description without embellishing.]

SUMMARY

[Summarize your most important qualifications in a few sentences. Alternately, highlight them in the bullet (•) list below, one per bullet. (Ideally, summarize here, then highlight specifics in the bullet list.) If you're applying for a specific job, tailor them to the requirements in the job description, as closely as possible without embellishing. Incorporate action words and industry-standard keywords. If needed, rename this section to better fit what you write, such as Profile, Qualifications or Background.]

[Optional brief description]

• [List significant awards, accomplishments or curricular activities, or your minor, work completed toward advanced degree, etc.]
• [If your education is more important than your experience, move this whole section to just below the Skills section; for example, if you're fresh out of school with little career work experience.]
• If you've earned certifications or completed special technical training instead of a college degree, delete this part of the education section and use the one below.

[Certifications, Technical Training or School Name]
[School Name, City, State or Certifications or Technical Training]
[Optional brief description]

• [List certifications or technical training credentials you've earned, in addition to your college degree if you have one.]
• [But if you've highlighted certifications or technical training credentials in a previous section, don't simply repeat same here. Instead, use this part of the education section to provide details or just delete it.]
• [Rename this section as appropriate.]

[Optional extra section for what you think is important to emphasize; for example, relevant military duty, awards or membership in career-related professional organizations. (Personal hobbies and interests are no longer included in U.S. resumes, because they have too-often given the wrong impression.) If this section is more important than another, move it up in your resume. Delete this section from the resume template if you don't use it.]

References available on request. [This resume template section is often omitted in modern resumes. Employers now assume that you'll provide references when asked. If you want to keep it anyway, just delete this bracketed text.]
