What should my Business resume look like?

Resumes for business professions can follow many formats. A traditional, chronological resume highlights your education and work experience, starting with the most recent.

If you're transitioning careers, re-entering the workforce after a break, or want to highlight skills you've gathered in diverse areas of your life, consider a functional resume.

Academic positions often require a curriculum vitae (CV), which is a comprehensive record of your academic achievements. Learn about creating a CV.
