Sample Resume

In preparing your resume, it is important to present your personal information,

education and work background in a clear and structured manner. This will not only
make it easier for the interview panel to contact you but make it easier to consider
your capabilities- personal qualities and background offered for the role.

You may wish to consult a Professional Resume writer to prepare your resume- see
advertisements in the press and on websites. Or, why not go to your local library or
search the Internet for other examples.

One example of a Resume format is provided below.
