Resume questions for 1 year out new grad RN

[emersushea]

I am a new grad RN and have been in my current position for the past year. I have been offered a different position by my nurse manager and eagerly have accepted. According to hospital rules, my NM will need to create an open position that I will need to apply to using the organization's website. This means I will need to update my resume.

Having not looked at my resume for the past year I was curious about what most 1-year-in-the-field RN's are including on their resumes. Have you been eliminating non-medical related work history and still listing college clinical experiences? Or have you been keeping the same resume and just adding your current position to it?

What I put on my resume likely will not have much of an effect on my situation, but I am still curious what the "standard" is.:)

Thanks all!!

I think at that point I did not include non-clinical positions. I had my student nurse jobs and internships, and some clinical volunteer activities.

Congrats on the new job!

I also make sure I keep my resume updated on a semi-regular basis. You never know what's going to happen, and that way it's always ready to go...you don't have to try to remember 5 years of work history in 5 minutes.
