Resume Format

CSPD Resume Guide

The CSPD resume guide is designed to help your resume stand out among dozens, perhaps hundreds of candidate resumes. Please keep in mind, this is to be used as a "guide," not the only format you can consider. Ultimately, you make the final decision as to what format to use and what information will be included in your resume.

This resume guide is designed for students whose extended experience requires a slightly different format.

Sample Chronological Resumes

The following samples should be helpful in putting together your own resume.

Additional Information

It is important to start each bullet in the experience section of your resume with an action verb. Please refer to this partial list of action verbs when writing your document.
