A nursing resume is your chance to present yourself in the best light to an employer. Follow these tips to improve your chances of getting your resume seen.

Firstly, keep your resume short and concise. An employer doesn’t have a lot of time to read it. At the same time, make sure that the bullet points are concise and provide clear information as to what you have done and your accomplishments. Secondly, your work history should show your most recent work experience first, working back in reverse chronological order.

Make sure to target the resume to the specific position. In order to do this, look at the job advertisement to understand the experience, skills, education and qualifications required and make sure that your resume highlights how you meet these criteria.
