This is an important section but not the most important. Here you will list your employment history and, depending on the style of resume you are writing, include the details here or in the Qualifications section. Do not use your job description to describe what you did at your previous places of employment. Instead, focus on the things that matter to your potential employer.
You might include these items: (A bulleted list is recommended for this section)
- Name and City / State of Company
- Title of Position (Department- optional)
- Month/Year Hired – Month/Year Departed
- Accomplishments (optional depending on your choice of resume style)

- Widgets R-Us, Somewhereville MN – Sales Associate (2004-2006)
