Brooke County Libraries - Resume Tip #13
Not sure what to do about the education section of your resume? We have a few suggestions.
The education section seems to be one everyone is uncertain how to format. Whether you have many certifications and degress or only a high school GED, it can be confusing how to set the information on display.
Here's our recommended format for the Education section. You want to go in chronological order. We do not recommend including the addresses of these institutions unless you are looking to fill up space. Most employers will be able to verify by the use of a simple internet look up tool. They can also always reach out to you if they are interested in more, and that gives you a chance to connect with your future employer.
