Resume advice, pls see

Reigen · Nov 14, 2008

I have these titles in my resume...would you recommend I change the order of them in any way?
my name with address
objective
employment history
licenses
education
certifications
organizations/community
references
***I am just not sure if it should be employment, lic, edu, cert...or if it should be employ, edu, lic, cert....or some other way....
thx for any input..
btw, i am a new grad so this is my first resume being created for an RN position.

Here is the format I use:

Name

Address

Telephone Number

Email (if you have one)

Professional Summary (Instead of objective)

Skills, Computer, documentation (Make like a bullet)

Professional Organizations

If other jobs in nursing LPN CNA list skills etc.

Credentials

New Grad Passed NCLEX (DATE)

BLS/CPR

Experience

Education

Leave off References

:heartbeat:heartbeat:heartbeatPersonally as a recent grad myself I put education high on my list because I had no work experience that related to nursing

I put the name, address, phone number - centered in a heading

THEN . . .

Objective

Education

~ Under education I also listed my internship on a neuro/med/surg floor because that was the type of unit I was applying to.

GPA

I didn't have my license when I started applying. . .so I left that out

Career Experience

Volunteer / Comm Service

. . . .Then I centered at the bottom of the page "References Available"

:heartbeat:heartbeat:heartbeatHope this helps
