OR Resumes

I've just finished a summer internship in an OR (predominantly as a scrub tech). I complete my ADN in December. I've set up some informational/interview meetings. I'm getting requests for resumes. I'm not sure what to include.

I've had a great resume for years but all geared to office work...not sure what folks in my new profession are looking for. Any insight would be appreciated.

Thanks

Hi! Fill out your resume just as you always have but when you list job duties think of the things you did in the office that will help you succeed in the OR. You have the advantage of being in the OR so you know somethings that will be expected of you in the future. Sorry, I never worked in an office but things like prioritizing tasks, scheduling and keeping the office on schedule, working with clients, putting them at ease, communicating with collegues, computer skills, comfortable with technology. I remember trying to make waitressing sound relevent, LOL. They just want to see that you can hold a job and that you have grown from each experience! Good luck!
