Making a resume

This is a great little tip here - excellent point!!

Depending on what position you are seeking and what stage of your career you are in, different types of resumes might be more effective. For example, a nurse or medical professional, teacher, or someone in a scientific field may require a curriculum vitae, which is usually a lengthy document detailing education and experience. If you are seeking to advance your career in a certain field, then the chronological order is the preferred method of listing your skills and qualifications. If you are making a career change, reentering the job scene, a recent graduate, etc. there are different types of resumes addressing each of those situations. Again, the purpose of any resume should be a history of your qualifying skills, experience, and education focused on the position you seek. These areas are the main components used in resumes, but the order in which they are addressed in the resume will be different. Hope these comments help, and glad the original poster has received interviews based on all the helpful postings. Congratulations!
