Writing Registered Nurse Resume Template Page 2

Content:
Your resume’s content briefly outlines who you are, what you’ve done, and what you’ve learned. Content on a resume is not in
complete sentence format. This is so the reader can get to the point quickly. You don’t need to put anything about references
on the resume - they go on a separate document.
The 3 components to a resume description:
1. Verb (Tired of using the same old verbs? Do an internet search for “resume verbs” and have fun looking at all of your
options!)
2. What you did
3. How what you did relates to the bigger picture (why was it important, what strength was developed, why the reader should
care)
In most cases, you can follow one of the formulas below to write the descriptions:
Verb, what you did, how much?
Verb, what you did, how did you do it?
Verb, what you did, why did you do it?
Verb, what you did, what strength or skill was developed?
Verb, what you did, with what?
Some examples…
Educated patients and families on disease prevention techniques
Utilized creativity and problem solving skills with diagnoses for low health literacy populations
Developed detailed care plans for up to 8 patients per day in a fast-paced community clinic
