Career Management Objective 3.04: Résumés

What is a Résumé? Résumé: A summary of one’s personal information, education, skills, activities, interests, and employment experience.

Types of Résumés Chronological Functional Combination Targeted

Chronological Résumé A chronological résumé starts by listing your work history, with the most recent position listed first. Your jobs are listed in reverse chronological order with your current, or most recent job, first. Employers typically prefer this type of résumé because it's easy to see what jobs you have held and when you have worked at them.

Example of a Chronological Résumé

Functional Résumé A functional résumé focuses on your skills and experience, rather than on your chronological work history. It is used most often by people who are changing careers or who have gaps in their employment history.

Example of a Functional Résumé

Combination Résumé A combination résumé lists your skills and experience first. Your employment history is listed next. With this type of resume you can highlight the skills you have that are relevant to the job you are applying for, and also provide the chronological work history that employers prefer.

Example of a Combination Résumé

Targeted Résumé A targeted résumé is a résumé that is customized so that it specifically highlights the experience and skills you have that are relevant to the job you are applying for. It definitely takes more work to write a targeted résumé than to just click to apply with your existing résumé. However, it's well worth the effort, especially when applying for jobs that are a perfect match for your qualifications and experience.

Example of a Targeted Résumé

References Before you begin the job hunt, it's helpful to gather your references into a 'Professional Reference Page.' List your references in descending order starting with your most impressive or important reference. Make sure to include the reference's name position title organization phone number email address Résumé Types. (2010). About.com. Retrieved November 8, 2010, from http://jobsearch.about.com/od/resumes/p/resumetypes.htm

How long do employers typically look at a résumé? A. Less than 30 seconds B. 3 Minutes C. 1 Minute Employers often receive hundreds of resumes for a single position. They don’t have time to pour over every word on each one. So if you answered “A”, you are correct. This increases the importance of the smallest details.
