00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:03.243
On the functional resume,
you will have a separate

00:00:03.278 --> 00:00:05.290
section that will describe
your skills and

00:00:05.325 --> 00:00:08.937
accomplishments, which you will
break into job task groupings.

00:00:08.972 --> 00:00:12.827
An example of a job task
grouping is Computer Skills.

00:00:12.862 --> 00:00:15.649
You may list these groupings
in the order that you think

00:00:15.684 --> 00:00:17.994
will be most relevant to the
potential employer;

00:00:18.029 --> 00:00:20.710
there is no need to use any
date order here.

00:00:20.745 --> 00:00:23.543
You can pick and choose from
a broad variety of your

00:00:23.578 --> 00:00:26.633
experiences, both paid and
unpaid, with each

00:00:26.668 --> 00:00:28.242
accomplishment grouping.

00:00:28.277 --> 00:00:31.131
Be sure to use short,
action verb phrases,

00:00:31.166 --> 00:00:32.780
not complete sentences.

00:00:32.815 --> 00:00:36.291
This format is especially
appealing to those people who

00:00:36.326 --> 00:00:39.106
have been out of the work force
for some years, because dates

00:00:39.141 --> 00:00:42.832
are not attached to any specific
skill or accomplishment.
