What Are the Types of Resume Formats?

There are many different types of resume format & layout available. The most common ones are chronological, functional, and combination resume format. Apart from these, there are also international resume format, formal resume format, modern resume format, etc.

Chronological resume format :

It is the most frequently used resume format. In a chronological resume format, everything is listed in reverse chronological order, meaning that the latest experiences & accomplishments first.

Functional resume format :

It is a skill-based resume format that focuses on emphasizing the skills of the applicant. In a functional resume format, qualifications and accomplishments would be the highlight instead of employment period or work history.

Hybrid/Combination resume format :

It is the hybrid version of chronological and functional resume formats. A hybrid resume format highlights relevant skills while documenting work history. It lists skills and experience first, while employment history would be listed in reverse chronological order.

Targeted resume format :

It is featured as a highly customized resume, especially for a specific company or job. Compared to making a generic resume, building a targeted one takes more effort on tailoring it to make you the BEST fit for a particular opening. In spite of the extra time and effort it takes, you can always expect a better result from it.

What Is the Best Format for a Resume?

Since resumes can be utilized in many different scenarios, it is not practical to say which resume format is the best.

For instance, the functional resume format can be favorable for people who are with gaps in their work histories and trying to return to the workplace (e.g. stay-at-home moms, people who took a work hiatus to go back to school, and etc.). The format focuses on the applicant’s accomplishments and qualifications, which takes employers' attention away from the employment gaps. However, a functional resume format is not recommended for general job seekers.

Besides, resume formats can be combined and made the most of. For example, experience or items on resumes can always be listed in reverse chronological order, that’s why chronological resume format is the most common resume format.

On the whole, if you are making a career change, and you have already had an eye on few particular job openings, the targeted resume format is highly recommended to you. If you are a fresh graduate currently enters the workforce, perplexed about your career, and urgent to find a job, it is suggested to adopt the hybrid resume format. It can properly highlight your value as well as be sent out to a number of companies.
