chronological or functional?

0

Most recruiters and hiring managers prefer a chronological format, but there are some instances when it makes more sense to stress functional skills over chronology. Examples would be when you are changing careers or when there is a gap in your chronology. Even when you want to stress function, it is still important to show chronology, even if it is very abbreviated. Are there power words to avoid? Job seekers should avoid overused phrases; terms like team player, quick learner, detail-oriented, or great communicator and opt for action-oriented phrases that prove impact. For example, instead of saying great communicator, say facilitated five training sessions on benefits open enrollment procedures and received a 5 out of 5 facilitator rating on 100+ evaluations. What skills are most important on a resume? Job seekers need to match competencies to what the job spec requires. Employers are looking for people who can solve problems and work well in teams. But it is not enough to just say
