The entertainment resume was created for a client that has previously worked as a manager in the music industry. After bouncing around a few times in a short span, the job seeker is looking for something more stable that can be viewed as a long-term career.
The goal was to highlight his strengths and potential contributions by explaining proficiencies in an introductory paragraph and listing their best qualities in a Core Competencies section. This was designed to focus solely on strong points, without addressing that they bounced around somewhat.
From there, the three most recent employments were thoroughly explained, with the most relevant bullet points written in bold font so that truly stand out.
The first two jobs were not directly related to the goal so they were listed in an Early Career Summary section. These jobs do offer some value, but bullet points were not needed. They were still included to show that the candidate has remained steadily employed.
Next, the client’s education and achievements were listed before ending the resume with relevant activities and technology proficiencies. The overall picture of this client is portrayed as a well-rounded manager.
