It should also help the\nemployer understand how these qualifications/experiences relate to their hiring needs.\nResume writing is both a skill and an art form. Writing a resume requires careful consideration, strategy, and\nconstruction each time you apply for a new position. This means every time you submit an application, you will need to\nwrite an altered resume tailored to each specific position.\nDO NOT PANIC! While it may seem like a lot of work in the beginning, the more you practice, the easier writing effective\ntailored resumes will become. This guide will help you learn the major elements of effective resume writing and walk you\nthrough the process of constructing a strong professional document.\nThe General Rules of Resume Writing\n1. Resumes should not be a step by step recap of everything you have ever done. Rather, it is a document that\nhighlights the most relevant skills and experiences as they relate to the position for which you are applying.\n2. Resumes should be written in the third person. Never use references to yourself in the first person, i.e. \xe2\x80\x9cI\xe2\x80\x9d, \xe2\x80\x9cMe,\xe2\x80\x9d\nor \xe2\x80\x9cMy.\xe2\x80\x9d\n3. Resumes for undergraduates should be confined to one page.* Resumes for professionals with a wealth of\nexperience or with education levels of master\xe2\x80\x99s degrees or higher should be no longer than two pages.*\n*The exception to this rule is Federal resume writing\n4. In the United States, resumes should not contain personal information regarding race, ethnicity, sex, gender,\nreligious affiliation (unless affiliation is professional in nature), or age. Never include a picture on your resume.\n5. The use of color and graphics is discouraged for all resumes except those submitted in design or arts industries.\nFormatting\n\xef\x82\xb7 Your name should be the largest font size of the document (16 \xe2\x80\x93 18 pt. recommended) and can be in any style you\nchoose as long as it is READABLE (refrain from using script fonts).\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nYour contact information can be smaller (10 pt. font).\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nIf your email address is automatically made into a hyperlink, remove the hyperlink by highlighting the email\naddress, right clicking, and selecting \xe2\x80\x9cremove hyperlink\xe2\x80\x9d from the drop down list.\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nFont size for the body of the document should be either 11 or 12 pt. in an easy-to-read style (i.e. Times New\nRoman, Arial, Verdana).\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nWatch for spacing\xe2\x80\x94be sure that all spacing between sections is consistent.\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nDates should all align on the RIGHT side of the page.\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nList all experiences within a section uniformly.\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cExample:\nGOOD!\nEXPERIENCE\nVolunteer, Society for Human Resources Management\nMay 2012 \xe2\x80\x93 June 2013\nArlington, VA\n\xef\x82\xb7 Provided technical support to office of 20 staff members\n\xef\x82\xb7 Performed administrative duties such as filing, answering phones, and organizing on-line drives\nIntern, Very Important Company LLC\nMay 2012 \xe2\x80\x93 May 2013\nSilver Spring, MD\n\xef\x82\xb7 Served as administrative assistant to HR coordinator\n\xef\x82\xb7 Assisted in the hiring process for 10 new employees; conducted interviews, reviewed employee\nassessments, and maintained accurate employee files\n\nInconsistent\nCan you find the errors?\n\nEXPERIENCE\nVolunteer, Society for Human Resources Management, Arlington, VA\nMay 2012 \xe2\x80\x93 06/2013\n\xef\x82\xb7 Provided technical support to office of 20 staff members\n\xef\x82\xb7 Performed administrative duties such as filing, answering phones, and organizing on-line drives\nVery Important Company LLC, Intern\nMay 2012 \xe2\x80\x93 May 2013\nSilver Spring, MD\n\xef\x82\xb7 Served as administrative assistant to HR coordinator\n\xef\x82\xb7 Assisted in the hiring process for 10 new employees; conducted interviews, reviewed employee\nassessments, and maintained accurate employee files\n\nCONTENT CONSTRUCTION\n1. Traditional Resume Section Headings\nResumes can have a variety of sections and section headers. The sections you choose to include in your resume are\nyour choice, however there are some sections that MUST be included on every resume. Below, you will find a list of\nrequired sections as well as additional sections you may want to consider depending on your experience and industry.\nContact Information (Required)\nContact information should be the section at the very top of the resume that includes your name, telephone number,\nemail address, and postal address. It does not need a heading.\n\nMARTIN MARYMOUNT\nmmarymount@marymount.edu\n(703) 555-5555\n123 All Saints Way\nArlington, VA, 22207\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cOBJECTIVE (Optional)\nThe objective section is an element of the resume that is not generally recommended for college students but may be\nrequired by an employer. The objective should be a one to two sentence description of the kind of position you are\nlooking to obtain. If you choose to include this section, be sure to specify the kind of industry and work you would like to\ndo. Try not to be so general that the objective is unclear, but at the same time, not so specific that an employer can use\nthe objective to screen you out of the hiring process.\nExample:\n\xef\x82\xb7 \xe2\x80\x9cSeeking an accounts specialist position at JP Morgan Chase\xe2\x80\x99s Arlington office.\xe2\x80\x9d\no Too specific! This objective tells the employer that you only want a position as an accounts specialist\nand only in one branch office. If there is a similar position in a different office, you may not be\nconsidered.\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\n\xe2\x80\x9cSeeking an internship position.\xe2\x80\x9d\no Too general! This objective does not add any value to your resume as it does not clarify industry or\nexperiences you are looking to gain.\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\n\xe2\x80\x9cSeeking an entry level accounting position in top tier financial services firm with opportunities to both work\nwith a diverse client base and gain experience in corporate accounts. \xe2\x80\x9c\no Good! A nice balance of the general industry interests and experiences the person is seeking without\nlimiting what they might be considered for.\n\nQUALIFICATION HIGHLIGHTS/ PROFESSIONAL PROFILE (Optional)\nThis section can be either a bulleted list or a paragraph summarizing your best qualities and most relevant experiences.\nThis section gives the employer a general sense of how you are qualified for this position as well as how well your\nprevious experiences have prepared you for the kind of work you may be performing in your new position.\nQUALIFICATION HIGHLIGHTS\n\xef\x82\xb7 Motivated Fashion major with experience working in both the design and\nmerchandising areas of the Fashion industry.\n\xef\x82\xb7 Strong teamwork and leadership skills with ability to communicate effectively in\nverbal and written formats.\n\xef\x82\xb7 Specialized skills in constructing wedding gowns and formal women\xe2\x80\x99s wear\n\nOR\nPROFESSIONAL PROFILE\nAspiring public relations professional with radio and television broadcast media\nexperience. Strong organizational, communication, and multi-tasking abilities with\nproven successes managing multiple projects and events. Hard-working and motivated\nindividual with results-oriented perspective and commitment to excellence in customer\nsatisfaction.\n\nEDUCATION (Required)\nThis section should include any educational experiences you have completed or are currently completing AFTER HIGH\nSCHOOL. High school should not be included on a resume once a student has entered college. Items to include in the\neducation section include the kind of degree you are obtaining (e.g. Bachelor of Arts), major and/or minor, the date you\nexpect to graduate, name of your school, location of school (city and state only unless outside the USA), and GPA if it is 3.0\nor higher (if not, do not include). Relevant coursework and study abroad experiences can also be included here.\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cEDUCATION\nBachelor of Science in Nursing, Degree Expected: May 2015\nMarymount University, Arlington, VA; GPA: 3.7\nOR\nEDUCATION\nB.A. in Business Administration, concentration in Finance, Minor in Math\nMarymount University, Arlington, VA; GPA: 3.2\nStudy Abroad: \xe2\x80\x9cEuropean Finance\xe2\x80\x9d in London, England\nRelevant Coursework: Accounting, Finance I, Advanced Economics\n\nExpected: 05/14\nSummer 2013\n\nEXPERIENCE (Required)\nThe experience section (or sections) of the resume is the area where a person should list previous experiences in which\nthey have formally utilized or demonstrated work-related skills and abilities. These experiences can be formal job\nexperiences, volunteer experiences, leadership experiences, or internship experiences. To include an experience, one\nshould be able to associate a title with it (e.g. \xe2\x80\x9cVolunteer,\xe2\x80\x9d \xe2\x80\x9cPresident,\xe2\x80\x9d or formal job title). Experiences should be listed\nin reverse chronological order (most recent to least recent) and should be formatted uniformly. It is okay to have more\nthan one experience section (e.g. a \xe2\x80\x9cRELEVANT EXPERIENCE\xe2\x80\x9d and \xe2\x80\x9cADDITIONAL EXPERIENCE\xe2\x80\x9d section or \xe2\x80\x9cWORK\nEXPERIENCE\xe2\x80\x9d and \xe2\x80\x9cVOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE\xe2\x80\x9d section), but be sure to list the most relevant experiences first.\nThe experience description should include the title of your position, the name and location of your\ncompany/organization, start and end dates (including month and year) and no less than two bullet points or sentences\ndescribing a skill, knowledge set, ability, qualification, or recognition/award received. Bullet points should emphasize\ntransferable skills and should be no longer than 2 sentences (ideally only one sentence). If you have more than one\nexperience section, additional experience sections may not require bullet points.\nEXPERIENCE\nCashier, The Juice Factory\n05/2011 \xe2\x80\x93 Present\nArlington, VA\n\xef\x82\xb7 Demonstrated strong communication skills while interacting with and serving customers\n\xef\x82\xb7 Exercised efficient time management when completing multiple tasks in fast-paced service\nenvironment\nOR \xef\x82\xb7 Recognized as \xe2\x80\x9cEmployee of the Month\xe2\x80\x9d for July 2011, March 2012, and January 2013\nRELATED EXPERIENCE\nGraphic Design Intern, CoolArts Inc.\nJanuary 2013 \xe2\x80\x93 Present\nVienna, VA\n\xef\x82\xb7 Developed creative print marketing ads utilizing specialized design software\n\xef\x82\xb7 Designed web portfolio for 3 resident artists resulting in increase in client business\n\xef\x82\xb7 Assisted management in redesigning company logo\nADDITIONAL EXPERIENCE\nStudent Assistant, Lee Center at Marymount University\nArlington, VA\nWaitress, Rock Bottom Brewery\nArlington, VA\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\nSeptember 2011 \xe2\x80\x93 Present\n\nMay 2011 \xe2\x80\x93 September 2011\n\n\x0cConstructing the bullet points or sentence descriptions of your experiences may seem a bit tricky at first. To help\nyou get used to this style of writing, keep in mind that every bullet point should have three major components:\nAn action verb to start the bullet, the skill you are trying to emphasize, and the tasks that evidence your ability to\nperform that skill.\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nDemonstrated strong communication skills while interacting with and serving customers\nAction Verb\nSkill\nTasks\n\nConstruct your bullet points by following these steps:\nStep 1: Identify the skill/ability/qualification, etc. you would like to describe and write it down. To decide which skills\nto describe, you can use a variety of different methods.\na) Go to the job posting/description of the position for which you are applying. Underline or highlight the skills\nthe employer is looking for in an ideal candidate for this position. Identify the skills that you feel you most\nstrongly possess and write bullet points around those skills. If your job has no job posting, use an online\nsearch engine like www.simplyhired.com or www.indeed.com to look for similar positions and use the key\nskills emphasized in these postings. If you would like a more comprehensive list of job search engines by\nindustry, visit our website at www.marymount.edu/careerservices.\nb) Using the job title for which you are applying, do some research using www.onetonline.org or\nwww.bls.gov/ooh. These websites outline and describe thousands of job titles in the USA and specifically list\nthe kinds of skills and abilities required to effectively perform these jobs.\nc) Perform an informational interview (See Networking and Personal Branding E-Guide for more information\non this kind of interview) with an industry professional either in a job similar to the job for which you are\napplying or in a position that supervises the kind of job for which you are applying and inquire as to what\nkinds of skills and abilities are most important for that job.\nd) Look at the transferable skills list towards the end of this e-guide.\nStep 2: Think about the tasks and duties you performed in your experience that effectively evidence your ability to\nperform this skill. Write these down in a list on a separate sheet of paper.\nExample:\nPrevious position title: Student Front Desk Assistant\nSkill: Communication\nTasks:\n\xef\x82\xb7 Talked with customers at the front desk\n\xef\x82\xb7 Answered phones\n\xef\x82\xb7 Wrote emails to clients\nStep 3: Choose an action verb that helps the employer understand how or in what way you used or demonstrated this\nskill (See list of action verbs at the back of this document for help). Note that action verbs should be in\nPRESENT TENSE if you are currently working in the listed position and PAST TENSE if you are no longer working\nin the listed position.\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cExample:\nSkill: Communication\nSample Action Verbs:\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nExercised communication skills\nUtilized communication skills\nDemonstrated communication skills\n\nStep 4: Write your bullet point!\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nExercised communication skills when talking with customers, answering phones and writing\nemails to clients.\n\nGreat! Now you have written an effective bullet point. It is strong as it is, however you can make it even stronger by\nadding in some additional descriptors like adjectives and quantifiers (a.k.a. numbers) to clarify your skills, communicate\ncompetence, or emphasize a positive result of your actions. Use adjectives cautiously! Stay away from claims of\nexcellence like \xe2\x80\x9cAmazing,\xe2\x80\x9d \xe2\x80\x9cFantastic,\xe2\x80\x9d \xe2\x80\x9cSuperb,\xe2\x80\x9d \xe2\x80\x9cExcellent,\xe2\x80\x9d etc. as these adjectives may be perceived as an indication of\narrogance rather than confidence. For a list of strong adjectives, see our adjective list at the back of this document.\nAdjective\n\n\xef\x82\xb7\n\nQuantifiers\n\nExercised strong communication skills when talking with 20+ customers per day,\nanswering phones, and writing emails to clients.\n\nRESEARCH and/or PROJECTS (Optional)\nThis is a section commonly used by students to help show employers relevant academic work that has allowed them to\ndevelop skills the employer values. You can include any research papers, individual or group projects, and presentations\non relevant topics in this section. The description should include the title of the project or paper, the semester(s) date in\nwhich it was completed, the name of the school/organization at which it was conducted/completed, the location of the\nschool/organization, and a 2-3 sentence description of the project, skills used, and results. If you are going to list a group\nproject, make sure to clearly state that it was a group project. You must not take credit for the work of others.\n\nPROJECTS/RESEARCH\nSenior Seminar Business Project (Group Project)\nFall 2012\nMarymount University, Arlington, VA\n\xef\x82\xb7 Exercised effective team work skills while collaborating with group of 6 students to develop\nbusiness plan for hypothetical manufacturing company. Conducted formal oral presentation to\nSchool of Business; received grade of \xe2\x80\x9cA.\xe2\x80\x9d\n\nSKILLS (Required)\nThe Skills section should be reserved for concrete technical and language skills only. Computer applications you are\nfamiliar with and foreign language proficiencies should be listed here (name of language and proficiency level: basic,\nintermediate, advanced, and fluent). Note that for IT majors, this section will be much more extensive and include several\nsubheadings for additional technical proficiencies (e.g. applications, browsers, languages, etc.) For certain majors,\nincluding social media proficiencies (Facebook/Twitter/Pinterest) may also be a good idea. If you have no foreign language\nskills, simply do not list.\nSKILLS\nTechnical:\nLanguage:\n\nMicrosoft Office Suite, Photo Shop, Types 45 WPM\nFluent in French, Basic Spanish\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cACTIVITIES/HONORS/AFFILIATIONS (Optional, but strongly recommended)\nThis section is where you should place any extracurricular activities (e.g. club membership, college sports, community\nservice, volunteer work that is not listed as experience), professional organization memberships, and awards/recognition\nyou have received. This list should contain information that is relevant to the job for which you are applying or gives the\nemployer a better understanding of your character. You can have a separate section for each of these headers or you can\ncombine them as shown below. If you only want to describe one item header (e.g. only ACTIVITIES) that is fine as well.\nThe purpose of this section is to help the employer understand what sets you apart from other individuals with similar\neducation, experiences, and skills.\nACTIVITIES/HONORS/AFFILIATIONS\nPresident, STEM Club, Marymount University\nMember, National Association of Science and Technology Students\nPresidential Scholarship, U.S. Department of Education\nVolunteer, Helping Hands Homeless Shelter\n\n09/2012- Present\n09/2011 - Present\n05/2011\n05/2011 \xe2\x80\x93 09/2011\n\n2. Industry-Specific Section Headings\nIt is important to note that every industry has its own standards for resume writing. These general instructions are a\nfantastic guideline to get you started, but, to make the appropriate finishing touches, it would be best to check in with\nindustry professionals, professors, and your Career Services office to be sure you are covering all of the necessary\ninformation for your industry. There are some industry-specific resume examples in this document, but if you would like\nto view more resume samples, log on to Jobs4Saints and visit their Resume Gallery.\n\nCURRICULUM VITAE (CVs)\nA Curriculum Vitae in the United States is a special kind of resume-like document that is primarily used by college\nprofessors and individuals pursuing high-level education/research or executive careers. It is very similar to the traditional\nresume only it is much longer (no page limit) and includes additional sections for Research, Publications,\nTeaching/Training Experience, etc. It may also go into more detail than a traditional resume about the types of\naccomplishments a person has made. CVs in the US are highly tailored to each position and are written in a similar format\nto the resume, the difference being in length and additional section headings. For additional assistance in constructing a\nCV, please contact the Center for Career Services. It is important to note that many other countries (especially European\ncountries like the United Kingdom, France, etc.) refer to what Americans call a \xe2\x80\x9ctraditional resume\xe2\x80\x9d as a \xe2\x80\x9cCV.\xe2\x80\x9d This\nmeans that if you are applying to a company in London, England, and they ask for a CV, they are really asking for your\ntraditional 1-2 page US resume with some additional information. For information about writing resumes for careers\nabroad, contact the Center for Career Services and/or the Center for Global Education.\n\nFEDERAL RESUMES\nFederal resumes are written similarly to public and private sector resumes, but differ in a few specific ways. The\nsection headings for a Federal resume are generally the same and experiences are described either in paragraphs or bullet\npoints. Here are the ways a Federal resume differs from other resumes:\n\xef\x82\xb7 Federal resumes have no page limit and are generally 3-5 pages long depending on experience\n\xef\x82\xb7 The OBJECTIVE section of a Federal resume contains the title and GS code for the position\n\xef\x82\xb7 Federal resumes contain significantly more personal information including your Social Security Number,\nCitizenship Status, Veteran\xe2\x80\x99s Status, and Security Clearances.\n\xef\x82\xb7 Experiences are described much more in depth and include information about your salary, hours worked,\naddress of company you worked at, supervisor\xe2\x80\x99s name and contact (and if it is all right to contact them)\n\xef\x82\xb7 There is no timeline limit for Federal resumes, you should include all work experiences regardless of\nrelevance.\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cSample Federal Resume\n\nPage 1\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cFederal Resume Sample\nPages 2 and 3\n\nFor more information on\nFederal resume writing,\ncontact:\nCenter for Career Services\n(703) 284-5960\ncareer.services@marymount.edu\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cResume Writing Tools and Samples\nTransferable Skills List\nManagement\nDecision-Making\nTechnical\nMulti-tasking\nEmotional Regulation\nInterpersonal Skills\nMotivating\nMediation\nCultural Sensitivity\nSupporting\n\nLeadership\nAnalysis\nFinancial\nOrganization\nConflict-Resolution\nPublic Speaking\nPersuasion\nCommunication\nLanguage\nMonitoring\n\nCritical Thinking\nEvaluation\nFacilitation\nAdministration\nProfessionalism\nResearch\nSelling\nProblem-Solving\nAssisting\nSupervising\n\nJudgment\nTeam Work\nTeaching\nManual Labor\nDevelopment\nPlanning\nPresenting\nWriting\nAssessment\nEmpathy\n\nAction Verb List\nAccomplished\nAddressed\nAided\nAscertained\nCentralized\nControlled\nDetected\nDirected\nEmployed\nEstimated\nExhibited\nFinalized\nFormed\nImplemented\nInterpreted\nLearned\nOrganized\nPrevented\nQuantified\nReasoned\nRecognized\nSalvaged\nStarted\nSupported\nTested\nVisualized\n\nAchieved\nAdministered\nAnalyzed\nAssessed\nCompared\nCoordinated\nDetermined\nDiscerned\nEnforced\nEvaluated\nExperimented\nFulfilled\nFound\nInnovated\nInvestigated\nMeasured\nPerceived\nProjected\nQuestioned\nRecruited\nRedesigned\nSaved\nStrategized\nSurveyed\nTranslated\nWeighed\n\nActed\nAdvanced\nAppraised\nAttained\nCompleted\nCultivated\nDeveloped\nDiscovered\nEnlisted\nExamined\nExplored\nForecast\nGenerated\nInitiated\nInspected\nMerged\nPredicted\nProved\nReached\nResearched\nReorganized\nSelected\nStudied\nSynthesized\nUndertook\n\nAdapted\nAdvised\nArranged\nAverted\nConducted\nDemonstrated\nDiagnosed\nDocumented\nEstablished\nExecuted\nFacilitated\nFostered\nIdentified\nInstituted\nLaunched\nObserved\nPrepared\nQualified\nReasoned\nReviewed\nResolved\nSolved\nSubstantiated\nSystemized\nVerified\n\nAdjective List\nSuccessful(ly)\nCompetent(ly)\nEfficient(ly)\nEffective(ly)\nStrong(ly)\nEnthusiastic(ly)\nSteady (ily)\nCareful(ly)\nSensitive(ly)\nImportant\nGracious(ly)\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\nModern\nRealistic(ally)\nVast(ly)\nAccurate(ly)\nAssertive(ly)\nHigh-level\nOrderly\nPractical(ly)\nDiscreet(ly)\nOptimal\nJudicious(ly)\n\nPowerful(ly)\nThoughtful(ly)\nAbsolute(ly)\nAggressive(ly)\nAuthentic(ally)\nImpartial\nProductive(ly)\nSavvy\nResponsible(ly)\nLasting\nCritical(ly)\n\n\x0cStandard Undergraduate Student Resume\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cInformation Technology Resume Sample\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cNursing Resume Template\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cStandard Graduate Resume Page 1\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cStandard Graduate Resume Page 2\n\nFor more resume samples by major/industry, login to Jobs4Saints and check out the Resume Gallery.\n\nMarymount Center for Career Services \xc2\xa92013\nCompiled by Amanda Sargent and Carin Usrey\n\n\x0cADDITIONAL RESUME WRITING RESOURCES AT THE CENTER FOR CAREER SERVICES\nIn addition to the information and examples this e-guide offers, the Center for Career Services also provides the following\nservices and materials to support the development of effective, tailored, resumes.
