• Nurse Practitioners in transition should be mindful of the fact that oftentimes, the first pair of “eyes” scanning your resume will not belong to a person but an Applicant Tracking System.

• These programs are designed to sift out non-qualified candidates by scanning resumes for particular industry keywords.

JOB TITLE, Unit – Facility Name (City, ST) Month Year – Month Year

• I encourage you to review all of your bullet points, ensure you are adding keywords consistently seen in job descriptions you are applying for, and ensure you include some accomplishments

• In general, it is best that you resume be no longer than two pages. Adjust the bullet points so your resume is only two pages. In addition, as a rule, you do not need to list EVERY job you have had, include the most impactful.
