General Manager Resume Example

This resume was designed for an aspiring General Manager that has a long history of working at a multi-sport club in various capacities.

With so much experience, the writer wanted to make sure to highlight the critical areas of expertise first before everything started to run together. The concern with having so many bullet points and previous positions is that the reader will begin to skim and may miss impressive accomplishments.

However, the higher up a position is that you are applying for, you also don’t want to shortchange yourself. In this case, the resume needed to make sure that the reader got a chance to see just how much this person has accomplished.

The Areas of Expertise section would alleviate some of that risk.  Bullet points with specific quantifiable accomplishments should be easily transferrable to a new company in the reader’s mind.
