Resume format/template

Anyone know of a good resume format or template? I don't like my current one and need to update it soon. Should I list my jobs and the responsibilities or just the jobs? And is it really bad if it goes over a page? Thanks for your help!

I went to live career.com for my résumé template.

You can also google nursing résumé templates to have an example.

Hope this helps!

JamieD8,

There are thousands of nursing resume templates available for free online, but I recommend using them solely for inspiration and creating your own instead. Keep in mind that if you found the template online, so did thousands of other people, and your resume will look identical (in design) to several others. I know that the content of your resume is equally/more important than the design, but using a template that looks like your competitors makes you blend into the crowd. Just a thought.

Secondly, page length should be decided by how much experience you have. If you are new or have limited experience, try to stick to one page. For experienced nurses, two pages is certainly acceptable. Avoid going over two pages, though. Additionally, decide if you want to use a reverse-chronological or functional resume, then you can decide if you should include your responsibilities.

Good luck!
