While there's no standard format for a Registered Nurse resume, there are things you should consider highlighting:

1) If you have any particular certifications, lead off with them straight away in what's known as a "Summary Paragraph", 3-4 sentences activelyhighlighting transferable skills.

2) Beneath that, a "Core Competencies" section, which is a keyword-friendly bulleted list of skills such as CPR Training, Patient Satisfaction etc.

3) Focus on 2 things when listing work experience: unique job responsibilities, and bulleted achievements for each one.

4)End the resume with an "Education and Advanced Training" section, which not only lists your college, but every specialized course you've taken which might be applicable.

Hope that helps! If you have any other resume-related questions, please do not hesitate to drop me a line.
