A good resume will highlight your specific accomplishments in each position as well as noting day-to-day activities that are relevant to the position you are applying for. Education should also be included and depending on the years of experience, can either be placed at the top of the resume or the bottom. A complete resume will also show awards, associations, community involvement and any other special skills that may pertain to the position. Resumes should always be geared to highlight the skills you have that match best with the position description of the job you are applying for. It may be beneficial to have one comprehensive resume with several versions for each position you have applied for. Typically the recruiters at Gibson Arnold & Associates like to see the comprehensive resume as it can better help determine how your qualifications will fit with the positions we have open. The three samples below show what information should be included and how it can be presented. Despite the position titles listed, you may find that each one has attributes that would be helpful in presenting your qualifications.
