LVN Resume

Published

I just passed my board and I am in the middle of job hunting. Do we really need to have a resume when applying for a job? If so, do we have to include our clinical experiences? I have my resume but I don't know how to fix it or whatever you might call it. I want to include my clinical experiences but where do I put it or how should I format it. HELP!!!

Help Me Please!!!!!!!!!!

This Is The First Time In 3 Years That I Have Had To Find A New Job And Everyone Is Asking For A Resume. I Have No Idea How To Create One Or The Proper Format Or The Cover Sheet. Any Suggestions On How I Should Start. And What All To Include. Thanks. Open To Any And All Help.

I had my resume reviewed by several professionals and they all said it was excellent, if you want to PM your email i can send it to your or vice versa and i can help you out.

It is important to have a resume, when applying to online ads or walking in to a facility. Your in a professional world and you need to have the basics such as a cover letter, which is best personalized and a seperate reference sheet. this should all be typed without grammatical errors(which i make sure i check on these types of things, not so much when replying on this website lol). You should use proffesional resume paper in Ivory or white- you can get it at walmart for like $9 for a box of 100 sheets, which is pleanty, trust me! You should also send out a thank you card to any place that has interveiwed you. You can google resume formats "lpn resume examples" and there will be websites that allow you to use there formats. You can also go online to microsoft word online and downlaod a resume format there- you just remove their info and type in yours. Anyways good luck and if you need some help just ask!

When I was about to graduate, my professor suggested listing the locations where we did clinicals, the focus of that semester (ie: OB/GYN) and what skills we did. It's better than nothing and they'll be able to tell that you are a newly licensed nurse, anyhow. I also agree with TheCommuter...I would pay someone to create one for me if that were financially possible. I had a resume service create one for me for about $25.00 and gave me the disk so that I was able to alternate it as I saw fit. Good luck, everyone!
