In a resume, for experience do we write...?

In a resume, for the experience part do we write all previous jobs we have had or do we write jobs that might be related to the job we applied for?
On a resume, in the experience section, you list all previous employers in chronological order. Employers value continuous

employment with no breaks in between and this will show that you have a steady work history. The objective that you state in your resume will clarify the direction that you are pursuing in your career. Not all previous jobs have to relate to your current goals.



I suggest that you go to a bookstore and find books on resumes. There are a lot of them. They will provide templates for you to use as guidelines for your own resume. This is very helpful They will show resumes from all occupations and you can choose a few to model that are close to your occupation. The technical pointers they give in these books will help you perfect your resume. When I first started out I found these guidelines to be invaluable.



Good luck to you.
