In modern resumes, subheadings are
used to separate and prioritize essential information as it pertains to the
current job search. They also
serve as visual cues to the hiring manager that one section has ended
and another begun.
Subheadings can be centered:
Professional
Experience
Or flush left:
Professional
Experience
They may be underscored for added
emphasis:
Professional
Experience
Or
set off by horizontal lines:
Subheadings to Consider Using on a Modern Resume:
- Summary of Qualifications or Profile
- Career Accomplishments
- Computer Skills
- Professional Experience or Work History
- Education
- Specialized Training
Order of Subheadings
In all modern resumes, information is
prioritized according to importance, with the most relevant pieces -- as they
relate to the current job search -- appearing first.
Therefore, if you were a recent
graduate with an academic, rather than a work-related, background in your
chosen field, Education would precede Professional Experience.
On the other hand, if you have had several years of solid work
experience in your field, the Professional Experience would come first.
The
key is always to highlight the most relevant data.
