Create Your Résumé

You’ve racked up an array of experiences and skills; now it’s time to tell your future employer all about them in just a few lines. A résumé is required for practically any job you apply to. It is the first step in getting noticed by a recruiter or hiring manager. Before ever talking to you, employers use your résumé to decide if you would be a fit for the job, or if another candidate is better. Monster’s Résumé Examples by Industry offers templates and tips to get your résumé started.
