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.
