English Resume] Basic Format

There is basically no fixed format for an English resume like there is for a Japanese resume.
You are free to create your own, but there is still a general format.

As a general rule, the following items should be included in a resume:
1 . Name
* Most people use bold or large font to make it stand out.
2 . Address, phone number, and email address
* You can also omit them.
* Some write the entire address, others just put Honolulu, HI.
* Phone and email address should be included to make it easier for the company to contact you.
3 . It may start with Objective or Professional Summary, but if you are not confident in English, you may choose not to include it and use your work history to convey the message.
4 . Work Experience ( Work Experience )
* Generally, list in chronological order with the most recent at the top.
* Do not use unnecessary lines such as "Joined the company", "Left the company", etc. as in the Japanese format. What year ~ What month ( Month ear - Month Year ) You can see at a glance when you joined or left the company.
* Title ( Job Title ) and include a brief job description. This will help convey what you have done and what you will be expected to do if you join the company.
* If you have changed jobs many times, you may omit some that are too old. However, sometimes what you omit should be included depending on the job you are aplying for.
5 . Education ( Education )
* It is not necessary to include elementary school as in Japan. The final educational background is all that is needed. However, those that can be used for appeal may be included.
* In addition to high school and college degrees, licenses, if any, should also be included. ( If it has nothing to do with the job to which you are applying, there is no need to include it. )
6 . Skills
* Show off your skills.
* Languages, computers, qualifications, etc.
7 . No need to include references.
* If asked is sufficient.

This is a rough list, but there are many ways to arrange it.
Your resume is your face when applying for a job.
In the U.S. we don't usually include a picture of your face, so you have to describe who you are in writing.
Only if it comes across well will you be invited for an interview. If your resume is not attractive, you will not be invited for an interview.
So, your resume is extremely important in your job search.
