QUESTION | Why might it be important to put your clinical rotations on a resume when looking for a nursing career? |
ANSWER  Jennifer Isaac-Gonzales M.S. Career Counselor | It is important to put your clinical experience on your resume for several reasons. However, each case may be different. If you do not have some type of related work experience on your resume, you may have room to put your clinical experience on your resume. If you were a student tech or certified nurse assistant, you do not need to put your clinical rotations on your resume because you may have transferrable and relevant skills that are already on your resume because of your work experience. Also, some nurse recruiters may ask you to put the clinical rotations on there because they want to see where you did them and what you did as a student nurse during clinical rotations. Just make sure that your resume does not go over one to one and half pages. This is why you need to come and see me for a resume review. |
