I am about to graduate (yay!) from an ADN program and could really use some feedback on my resume. I have no previous medical experience so it was suggested to take aspects from my previous jobs and in 1-2 bullets highlight specific tasks. We were also told to put our clinical information under the education section and were given 2 suggestions as to how to list the information.
1. List clinical site, location/unit type followed by a brief summary of important skills or
2. List clinical sites under one heading and Skills summarized under a second heading.
I chose to do the later mostly because I have had 3 med-surg rotations at different hospitals and also to save space since they said to keep it under 2 pages. I am a little confused as to what to list in the skills section because the nurse recruiter that presented at our school said it is expected that graduates know how to take vitals and administer meds and not necessary to list.
I have attached a copy of my first draft with all identifying information taken out (name, city, state, etc) The hospital I am applying to, does not have electronic applications, so the presentation/format is important.
