Write a note on chronological resume.
The Chronological Resume
In a chronological resume, the work-experience section dominates,
immediately after the name and address
and the objective. You develop this section by listing your jobs sequentially
in reverse order, beginning with
the most recent position and working backward toward earlier jobs. Under
each listing, describe yourresponsibility and accomplishments, giving the most space to the most
recent positions. If you’re just
graduating from college, you can vary this chronological approach by
putting your educational qualifications
before your experience, thereby focusing attention on your academic
credentials.
The chorological approach is the most common way to organize a resume,
and many employers prefer it.
This approach has three key advantages:
(1) Employers are familiar with it & can easily find information
(2) it highlights growth and career progression
(3) it highlights employment continuity and stability
The chronological approach is especially appropriate if you have a strong
employment history and
are aiming for a job that builds on your current career path.
