1. If you can email that to me I'll send you mine and look at yours.. The preferred format is now changed, and you're missing a few sections, as well as have some extras. The length is now a full 2 pages They want no objective (because everyones objective is to get a job) The also like you to include 2 paragraphs, the first about you overall, like your hobbies and stuff like that, and the second that is catered to the position. Example, I'm a software developer, and I wrote about the first thing I did that led to to believe that was the career choice for me, then went over my steps to get where I'm at.. In your education section, briefly go over what you've learned in school, like some of the main classes relating to the fields You need a skills section, its divided into 3.. can't remember what they are but I can send them to you if you email me, one is technical skills, i know that,, one is basic... like first aid, drivers license, speak XXX languages... not sure of the layout At the moment. They also like you to include 3 refrences. One personal, one education, and one..........;.. cant remember that either But seriously, I have a good resume (not meaning to brag but people have definetly commented on how awesome it is).. You can basically copy it and change it to your stuff if you'd like it!
2. You have it in a pretty good format. I would recommend writing out the results of each point that you have written. For example, in your bank telling experience you have: "Performed daily banking activities such as: cashing customer checks, and depositing funds into customer accounts." Maybe write: "Performed daily banking activities such as: cashing customer checks, and depositing funds into customer accounts that help to....." This will spice up your resume because it shows how you made a difference in the workforce.
