TYPES OF RESUME

A chronological resume starts by listing your work history, with the most recent position listed first.1 Below your
most recent job, you list your other jobs in reverse chronological order.

Note

Employers typically prefer this type of resume because it's easy to see what jobs you have held and when you have
worked at them. This is the most common resume type.

This type of resume works well for job seekers with a strong, solid work history. If you are starting your career, or if
you are changing career fields, you might consider a different resume type.

FUNCTIONAL RESUME
focuses more on your professional skills rather than each job you held and when
you held that job.

SKILLS and EXPERIENCES, not on work history

The biggest difference between a functional resume and the
standard chronological resume is that a functional resume groups your
experience under skill categories instead of job titles.
Skills and abilities are listed first, followed by chronological experience. This resume format is
good for emphasizing specific skills and abilities of professionals with diverse backgrounds and
creative applicants like designers or artists.
