Resume Overkill? Experienced RNRating: (votes: 0) I have a long list of specialties and jobs too and I tried to stay at least a few years at each location. This is what I do when applying for different types of jobs. I have my general resume that lists all my expereinces, places I've worked, education, certificates. So the only thing I change for different jobs is the experience paragraph. If I'm going NICU, I higlight areas in other jobs that might he relabent to the position I'm applying for but mostly I focus on NICU stuff. For instance I did management at one job. If I wanted another position in managemnt I wouldn't emphasize my leadership roles, charge nurse, preceptorships, etc. And emphasize what experience I had in my management position. Consider a profesionsl resume company. It has been suggested to me with so much experience and a broad background to use the services of a professional resume company, however, I've always gotten the job I wanted using what I have so I've never done this. (it was suggested by job placement people professional headhunters, etc). Best of luck. I know I've grown as a result of all my experience, and i'm sure you have too. Comment: One possibility is to do a single-page "Execytuve Summary" resume that is labeled as such. Then enclose the complete resume for those who wish to see the details.People who just want to see the executive summary can just read the first age and then stop. People who want more information can keep reading.Comment: Thank you both. I think I will research an Executive Summary. I have too much non-clinical experience that I want to capture and I think that may help. I'm hoping not to hire someone...dang it Im a nurse! I can do ANYTHING!! LOLComment: "Executive Summaries" are not specific to resumes. It's a general term used in business writing to refer to a very short summary of a much longer report. The 10-page report might begin with an executive summary that is one page or even less.Good luck!
