Our Outline Format is preferred by federal HR specialists for the USAJOBS Resume Builder. We also offer a federal resume that is formatted for printing or uploading to USAJOBS using the resume upload feature. When you order our federal resume writing service, you have the choice of one of two resume formats (or receive both formats for an additional fee).
The Resume Place, Inc. and Kathryn Troutman, President and acclaimed author created the Outline Format in 1999. All of our book samples and services feature this format.
YES! The is the Federal Resume format that human resources recruiters like to see. It is easy to read, and they can find the keywords and qualifications EASILY when they are reading hundreds of applications.
Writing a federal resume is very different from writing a private industry one. Most federal resumes are 3 to 5 pages long. The challenge is to present large amounts of information in a clear, organized way that is easily scanned by both people and computers. The OUTLINE FORMAT succeeds because both the federal human resources staff or the online application programs can effectively identify that the experience you have meets the desired job qualifications.
