Resume Style 11 : Fix Your Minimal Education Problems

Resume Style 11 displays your information such that it draws attention to your consistent employment history and away from your minimal education by making the dates very noticeable. Do you have an unfocused work history where you worked at jobs that weren't in the same field? Alternatively, you are short on education? You can demonstrate reliability by making the dates prominent.

Resume Example Style 11

You can diminish the appearance of a lack of education or an unfocused education by selecting a format that puts your Experience section before the Education section. Let them see that section first; then they can move on to the other sections. That can work to your advantage; often, recruiters are in a hurry and glance at a resume. They may not notice your deficiencies right away. If you get your foot-in-the-door that will give you the chance to explain the situation, you never know. While this wouldn't be the first choice, it is a strategy you could try if you aren't getting results from other ways. Though during your interview, the recruiter will uncover this problem, so make sure you have a good explanation.
