Sample Chronological Resume 3
Susan Ireland's Comments:
Resolving Gap in Work History
For the last two years, Christopher Bond spent most of his time managing a family crisis that he decided was not appropriate to put on his resume. During that time span, he did some freelance catalog production for a former colleague.
Notice how the Work History on Christopher's resume doesn't mention his personal situation, even though it actually consumed about 80 percent of his time and energy.
