RESUME HELP

Hi!! I am new graduate RN on a Cardiac Telemetry unit with about 7 months of experience now. I am planning to apply to RN Fellowship programs once I have one year of experience. I am looking for tips on how to go about my resume. For a new grad resume, the layout is completely different. I would love resources or guidance on how to make a resume with one year of nursing experience. Do I include non-nursing experience too? How does one format a nursing resume? Thank you!

    Anything from nursing school or before now is relevant. You resume should only have personal statement, education, certification and work experience as a nurse.

    If you worked as CNA or something along those lines it may be OK to add at this stage of your career. But if it’s not healthcare related keep it off. Same with GPA/clinical ect from school, don’t put it on!

    I agree with Ednurse20 completely. Only put those things on your resume and don't make it too long. 1 page is recommended. On your most recent work experience, make sure you highlight valuable skills/certifications you have acquired during those 7 months. Make sure your cover letter also highlights these skills/cert from recent experience. Non-healthcare experience isn't necessary.

    As far as formatting goes, Google, new grad nurse resume. It will bring a lot of results, play along with those websites. Some even offer free resume/cover letter building.
