Crafting a Chronological Resume
September 2nd, 2008

Before writing a chronological resume, naturally you need to know exactly what it is and when it should be used.  The components of this kind of resume are basically the same as any other, but the format is difference.  In this case, you begin by including a list of your work history, starting with your most recent job.  The job just prior to that goes next, et cetera, and your first job last – it is reverse chronological order.  A lot of employers consider these the best resumes, because it is much easier for them to see what jobs you have had, when you had them, and how long your employment lasted.
