Knowing What Information to Include

Some components of a resume are pretty obvious, such as your name, address, and telephone number, and an e-mail address if you have one. You also should include job objectives.

Basics aside, you can start plugging in the real information. This includes work experience, including date and years as well as locations of all related experience. You also need to include your education, again with a name and address and the years you attended. You should also consider skills section so your knowledge of equipment and any special awards, along with any foreign languages you might know. You always need to have a References section, which can be typed on a separate page or at the bottom of your resume. Make sure to include your reference's name, address, telephone number and job title.
