A professional summary consists of several well-crafted sentences or bullet points that showcase your best skills and top qualifications. Please see sample resumes for successful examples.  \nEducation  \n• List degrees and certificates that you are earning or have completed. Education should be listed with your most recent educational experience first.  \n• Generally, you do not need to include high school more than 2 years after graduation unless you area non-degree seeking student or your high school provided specialized skills (such as a technical school) .  \nFor each degree, list the following:  \n• Name of school  \n• Location of school (town, state abbreviation)  \n• Degree, and (expected) date of graduation  \n• Major Consider also including:  \n• Grade point average (optional; consider including if above 3 .0)  \n• Relevant courses (optional)  \n• Scholarships, honors, awards (optional)  \n• Extracurricular activities (optional)  \nSkills  \nConsider including a few lines highlighting skills such as  \n• Computer Skills  \n• Technical Skills  \n• Laboratory Skills  \n• Language Skills  \nMake sure to represent your skills accurately (for example you could describe language skills as “Bilingual in English and Portuguese; Conversational Spanish” to make a distinction between levels of competency in different languages  \nExperience  \n• The experience section of your resume includes your employment history. It can also include unpaid experiences, such as volunteer positions and internships, which help qualify you for positions.  \n• It is not necessary to include every position that you have ever held—be selective to highlight those experiences that best qualify you for the position that you are applying for.  \n• List your employment in reverse chronological order (your most recent experience first) . State position held, employer, location of employment (town and state) and dates of employment.  \n• Describe each position according to job duties and accomplishments emphasizing accomplishments most related to the job you are applying for.  \n• Make sure to thoughtfully include transferable skills—these are skills that you gained in one role that will bring value to your next role. For example, if you have worked as a Barista at Starbucks, but want a role as an administrative assistant, you might focus on your ability to work effectively with people  \n• Begin each phrase with action verbs (see page 3 for examples) .  \n• When possible, quantify and qualify your accomplishments, i.e.“surpassed sales quota by 15%”,“trained and supervised 5 employees”,“maintained average case load of 85.”  \nOther possible sections of the resume  \n• Professional certificates or licenses  \n• Academic projects  \n• Publications ","cbCail5HhGwLaqkH","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCail5HhGwLaqkH","pdf",743195,"English","# What is a resume?\n## How long should my resume be?\n# Editing my resume\n# Major components of a resume\n## Heading\n## Professional Summary (optional)\n## Education\n## Skills\n## Experience\n# Other possible sections of the resume\n# Resume action verbs","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of a resume?\",\"answer\":\"A resume is a designed document that provides information about education, skills, experience, and other qualifications.
