[una2]This is an OPTIONAL category. A cover letter can take the place of your objective. If you decide to include it on your resume, make sure you tailor it to the specific job for which you are applying and change when applying for alternate positions.
[una3]You don’t want a potential employer to have to search for your education so keep this format as standard as possible. Standard format includes: Name of degree, expected date of graduation, name of institution, major, minor or concentration and GPA if 3.0 or higher.
[una4]Format: Dates, titles and abbreviations should follow the same format throughout. Everything should line up and your resume should have a neat, clean appearance. Remember there are several different ways to format a resume, and you must be happy with the end result.
[una5]These sections are the meat of your resume. Make sure they are in reverse chronological order. You may include an Internship section putting it before Work Experience. One option is to use only the Work Experience section heading and list your internship first.
[una6]This is the place to list any computer or technical skills. Depending on the requirements of the job, this section can be located directly under Education or after Work Experience
