Creating a Compelling Nursing Resume
Nowadays, it seems the one industry that is in high demand for numerous positions is the medical and health field. Nursing in particular continues to have a shortage. However, a lot of companies are being extremely picky with whom they hire. If you are trying to land a job, consider the following tips to help your resume stand out.
The first thing you need to do is make sure you include references and your educational achievements. This is something that can really impress potential employers and can help get you the job faster than someone else. Nowadays, impressing employers with your resume and cover letter is everything.
If you have experience working in a few different fields or with different patients, list them out. If you have experience dealing with patients that have certain medical conditions list that out as well. This lets potential employers see that you have the experience needed for the job.
Try not to oversell yourself too much. Some people get so desperate for a job that they think listing every accomplishment and achievement is going to land them the job. It can come across as being too cocky and this is something employers are not fond of.
