just a quick question about resumes

Submitted by sweetdumpling on Mon, 06/30/2008 - 7:04pm.

I'm applying for a job in london when i move. it's for an apartment manager. the woman i spoke to said to use any cleaning experance i had.
so the jobs i had take up most of the page. i have 2 references on it. do i have to put my education (cause its not really applicable and i'm 31, not right out of school)? i dont want it to be too long. i've got an objection and my jobs and references. it looks good, but is it enough info?

thanks!

objective should be one line ("X position at Y company") and perhaps put the resumes on a separate sheet (?) or cut down the explanations of your jobs...

bullet points!

good luck!

I suppose you could leave it off, but I've never really seen a resume without it. Would it really make it that much longer? In the end it probably won't make much difference, the work history is obviously the most important.
Hopefully some other mamas will be of more help!
