Resumes are:

· customized documents that relate to the qualifications of a specific organizational position and help create an image of you serving in that position

· tailored to the position you are seeking

· two types

· conventional - chronological information about positions/activities

· functional - combine multiple positions into role areas you are trying to highlight (Yoder-Wise, 2019).
