This is the basic structure of my resume that got me hired on the spot, with no paid work experience in the field:
First and Last Name
Address Line 1
Address Line 2
Phone Number
E-mail Address
OBJECTIVE
State what you have to offer the facility and long-term goals
EDUCATION
List any CNA/HHA training programs and college degrees
CERTIFICATIONS AND LICENSURE
List any BLS, CNA, HHA, or other relevant certifications/licenses
CLINICAL EXPERIENCE
Listed my clinical experiences for my CNA course
RELEVANT WORK/VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE
I hadn't had paid work in the field, but I'd volunteered in a hospital
NON-MEDICAL WORK/VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE
I used this to highlight my volunteer work with kids, since it was a pediatric position, plus my work history to show I was reliable
REFERENCES
I gave 3 professional (clinical instructor, volunteer/work supervisors) references with phone and address
Always remember, keep it neat, use a professional e-mail address, and basic font (Times New Roman, etc)

Hello! I'd love to see an example of your entry level resume. I just received my CNA certificate & have been trying to put a resume together, but between the gaps in my work history{I've been a stay at home mom working from home} and unrelated fields...I'm not sure how to put it all together.
I know this is an older thread but I'm hoping you'll see this :) Any help would be appreciated, Thanks!

I found two really good sources for my resume. The first was that I bought the book Official CNA Resume and Cover Letter Manual on amazon. It had something like 10-20 different templates and helped me to figure out what exactly I needed for both. I also used a free resume guide on cnaexamcram.com. But in all honesty, it just pointed me back to the book, which ended up being my lead source.
