Functional Resumes
Functional resumes are best used in situations where specific skills and accomplishments gained through experience or academic qualifications will demonstrate the candidate's competency. Your skills should be listed in order of their importance.
The functional resume is ideal if you're looking for a complete career change. This resume is ideal for students who have no previous work experience and are applying for their first job.
Avoid the functional resume when you are applying for traditional jobs, especially positions within government entities or private institutions.
A functional resume's categories are based on :
Personal Details
Career Objective
Professional Experience
Work Experience(optional)
Professional Affiliations
Education
Awards
