I am trying to write my future resume (geared toward a new grad RN position) for my portfolio.

Any ideas on sites for examples?

Thanks!

no ideas for sites, but make sure that you put your clinical experience in your resume!

1. at top in lg letter (no fancy font or color) name

smaller: address, ph#, email

2. Edu: highest degree or degrees (I have 2 BS, & left out my AA's), GPA & if Honor roll

3. Experience

I began with nursing student clinical experience & broke them up.

IE: m/s, location, dates, then 2 acheivements or responsibilities

Then work exper: put current job here if have one

Then volunteer work experience & 2 goals, respon or achievements

Lastly: Interests- 2,3,4

Cover page should be fun!! Intro your self & then get personal! Make a seperate one for each job u apply for (I also have one general one). Recruiters hate the typical; this who I am, this is what I am interested in applying for & this is why I will be an assess crap. Tell 'im something personal. Like "this is my dream job. Ever since I was a kid and would sit at the dinner table with my Aunt as she would talk about the kids she care for I was always intralled with her stories and could see myself in that same position". Get the idea? Make sure only 0.50 to 0.75 page & a 1 pg resume. Recruiters read fast!

Good luck!
