HR Resume

Human Resources Resume Sample

Below is a sample of a resume for someone who is trying to get a job in Human Resources.
This career changer wanted to highlight his transferable skills by creating subheadings under the Relevant Experience section. Because his relevant experience came from one place of employment, he listed that employer at the top of the Experience section. Within his Work History section he mentioned his promotions very concisely. By not putting dates next to his degrees under Education, he avoided suggesting his age. This is an example of a functional resume.
