Sample Resumes

The following resume samples form the basic formats and principles of resume writing. Consider how each job seeker presented his/her skills and experience. Along with the subject matter, look at how the resume is presented. Pull out the best from each to help choose how to style your resume. Eventually your resume will be distinctive to you and will not look exactly like any of these presented.

Your resume should focus on your abilities. Employers want to know what you can do, not just where you have been.

The resume worksheets are tools for crafting your resume. They are not intended as a fill-in-the-blank form. Use them as a model. Sections may vary and the layout you choose will ultimately be a variation on one or all of these formats.
