When it comes to creating a comprehensive and professional resume, including references is a crucial
step. References provide potential employers with valuable insights into your work ethic, character,
and qualifications. If you've had the opportunity to be featured in a newspaper article, showcasing
this in your resume can be a powerful addition. However, it's essential to format your newspaper
article references correctly to maintain a polished and organized document.
Begin with the author's last name, followed by a comma and then the first name. If there are
multiple authors, list them in the order they appear in the byline.
Place the title of the newspaper article in quotation marks. Ensure proper capitalization and
italicize the name of the newspaper.
Provide the name of the newspaper in italics, followed by a comma. If the newspaper's name
includes a specific location, such as a city, state, or country, include that information after the
newspaper's name.
4. Publication Date.
Include the publication date of the newspaper article in parentheses. Use the format: (Year,
Month Day). If the article does not include a specific day, you can omit it.
5. Page Numbers.
If available, include the page numbers of the newspaper article after the publication date. Use
the abbreviation "p." for a single page and "pp." for multiple pages.
