Outshine Your Resume Work Experience Section

The work experience section of a resume has a powerful impact on recruiters and hiring managers. This section determines either the candidate will be an asset to the company or not.

The work experience section is a primary resume part. When employers ask for a resume, they basically mean work experience. According to reports, 2/3 recruiters are most likely to see the work experience section first on a resume.
