Sample Graphic
Designer Resume
When applying for a graphic designer position it is important to focus
on:
- Skills
- Experience
- Education
A chronological resume format handles this nicely. The graphic designer
resume example below is based on a chronological resume format.
A functional resume format should only be used if the applicant is
switching
careers or has held a large number of jobs in the recent
past. If the applicant is self-employed or works as a freelancer a
functional resume format would work well.
