Resume Section Headings
written by UltraJob
A resume is divided into several sections :
- Personal data
- Job Experience
- Education
- References
Each of these sections is preceded by a heading. These headings affect the scan-ability of your resume. Thought should be given to the following.
Readability Is your heading a good description of the section ?
White space White space : the space between sections and sub sections. White space can divide your resume in easily readable parts. It can give a logical architecture.
Centered or Left Justified Section headings can be either centered or left justified. Both are good. Choose the style that fits with the overall resume presentation.
Most important information The most important information goes on top. This applies to the sections themselves and to the information in the sections.
