Functional Resume Template and Format
A functional resume summarizes your professional "functions" or
experience and avoids or minimizes your employment history.
Advantages
- De-emphasizes short-term work history, since it outlines
transferable work skills
- Useful for recent graduates who don't have a lot of professional
experience in their field, but do have relevant coursework or
training.
-
- Minimizes dates, for "returning employees" after an absence from
the workforce
- Emphasizes skills you have that haven't been used in recent work
experiences
Disadvantage
- Hard to know what the applicant's duties were in previous
positions
