Sample Medical Cover Letter and ResumeNotice how this writer highlights her volunteer experience in her documents. Although she wasn't paid for doing these things, nevertheless, she developed skills in these situations that are relevant to the position she seeks. Her resume itself is organized more like a functional resume than a skills resume, since volunteer experience is substituted for paid experience. Thus, she has included the word "volunteer" in the subheading describing her experience. Also notice how the writer has included more than just her university coursework in her education segment. 554 Essen Ln.
