Need resume help

I am a student trying to get into nursing school and I'm currently in the process of writing a resume.

I was wondering if any of you could give me any pointers and important things I shouldn't forget about. Also, I need help on the format or the layout of the resume because I know there's a lot of different kinds of resumes out there and I don't know which I should use. So if you could link me to a general resume template or sample that would fit my needs that would be awesome. Or if you could even send me yours so I can have an idea of what mine should look like that would help a lot!

Thanks!
Cardillo AssociatesI found this website today and thought it was HIGHLY informative. There's a ton of information about nursing student resumes and nursing resumes. Good luck.

Thanks that was really helpful. I used the resume format from here Nursing Student Resumes and Portfolios with the tips from the website you gave me
