Sample Clergy
Resume
While the chronological and functional resume formats work well for
many careers, a curriculum vitae or CV resume format works better for
clergy
jobs.
A CV resume can be suitably longer than either a functional or
chronological resume and includes vital other areas of information.
Information on a CV resume may include publications, professional
memberships and community service.
The sample pastors resume below clearly demonstrates these categories.

also be included.
