TYPES OF RESUME

The CHRONOLOGICAL RESUME is the standard, traditional format. It focuses primarily on employment history and presents your work experience in reverse chronological order. This type of resume is ideal if your job listings are impressive, your employment history is linear, and your current position is directly related to your career path. Because of their straightforward nature, chronological resumes are typically favored by recruiters and hiring managers.

FUNCTIONAL RESUMES focus on transferable skills and de-emphasize individual positions, job duties and employment dates. Functional styles are frequently used by job seekers who have "holes" in their work history or want to make a career change. Their use should be carefully weighed, though, as some employers consider them "less credible" than traditional resumes with a blow-by-blow employment history.

For many, the best approach is a COMBINATION RESUME with a functional summary and a chronological work history. This strategy is advantageous for most job seekers – and if done properly, allows employers to quickly see how your background qualifies you for the position. A combination resume also provides additional flexibility if you have multiple objectives, as the summary can be rewritten and "slanted" toward the skills you want to emphasize.
