Updating My Resume After 1 Year

[rumwynnieRN]

My husband who will be applying for early separation from the Air Force later this year means we will be moving to Florida. When he applies, I will have had 1 year of MedSurg experience with a few months in geri-psych.

My question is how do I rearrange my resume? As a new grad, I had placed my clinical rotations at the top of my resume since I lacked experience. I'm under the impression I should probably get rid of my clinical rotations and emphasize my RN experience, but how? Currently, this is what my resume looks like (with some rearrangements from the text window since Word doesn't work well on here):

I'm guessing I should be getting rid of the last three sections, but will that make my resume too short?

[llg, PhD, RN]

Get rid of the school clinicals, but keep your volunteer work and group leader work. Those were experiences that you sought outside of school requirements -- not ones that all students do.

Also, add a small blurb about the nature of your staff nurse roles -- e.g. the type of patients served, were you a Charge Nurse? Preceptor? Serve on any unit committees? etc. Did you get a good score on your employee evaluations? Key care skills mastered, etc. What kinds of experience is that staff nurse job developing in you that will be an asset to your next employer?
