Education Resume Examples

Student Aide

Entry-level job applicants who don’t have much experience in the education industry should mimic the resume example above. It uses a functional resume format to focus a recruiter’s attention on the abilities they possess, as opposed to work experience, that relate to the job they are seeking. In this format, skills and qualifications take center stage. The job seeker still includes work history but places it at the very end, so the attention of the hiring manager stays on more pertinent information.

Vice Principal

This applicant for a vice principal role has both the experience and skills that are relevant to the position. Applicants who have significant experience can use a combination resume format like this one to display their qualifications. The abilities and a summary of qualifications are at the beginning of the document, while the rest of the resume focuses on work history to showcase both a strong career progression and a bevy of relevant skills.

Superintendent

For job seekers at the executive level in education, a chronological resume format like the example above is typically a strong choice. This format demonstrates the applicant’s rich and consistent experience in the field. While it includes a list of skills, they are at the end of the document to keep the focus squarely on her career progression and her application of leadership skills.
