Notice how this sample federal resume is formatted. Most employers in the federal sector look for HEADLINE FORMAT when they scan through resumes, as demonstrated in the example above. In a federal resume, your name and contact information should be the “headline” at the top of the page, followed by relevant work experience. One major difference seen here is the paragraph-like format of the subsequent accomplishments and qualifications. Federal employers want to know why you’re the most qualified and reliable person for a position, which is why they require more text-heavy documentation. If this type of resume is new to you, CareerProPlus is here to help!
