Model Resumes

We're pleased to present our professional resume (and CV) samples, which showcase just a few of our most popular resume formats, layouts, and designs. While each resume is customized, we're delighted to share this very small sampling of possibilities.

Resume samples that fit a variety of employment situations. These sample resumes and templates provide job seekers with examples of resume formats that will work for almost every job seeker. Don't just copy a resume format that you like. Instead, choose your resume very carefully. Review sample resumes, then select a format that highlights your strengths and achievements. Remember, your resume needs to impress the hiring manager enough so you get the interview. That means it needs to be perfect

Sample Model Resume

Just a few ground rules for an effective resume. . . Do not restrict your resume to a single page. On the other hand, do not gild the lily but instead give an accurate and thorough portrayal of yourself. Be consistent in your formatting so the resume will look organized and well planned.
