Sample Resume – How to write a Resume
I have had quite a few requests recently for a few examples of a sample resume. I will be uploading more soon but I thought I would upload a recent one I worked on.
You will notice this sample resume is in the “professional resume format” and focuses on EXPERIENCE. When look at your resume and trying to determine what to work on I would draw your attention to the DETAILS under each job. Each should highlight major responsibilities and, where applicable, focus on RESULTS!
If you would like a personal review of your resume please send your resume to Sample Resume. By sending your resume I will personally review your resume and give you feedback … in exchange I will remove all personal data and use your resume as a “sample” for others to see.
Below is a VISUAL version (click to enlarge) … and below that is a TEXT you can copy/paste/tweak for your own resume …
