what's unique about a data entry resume

a data entry resume is very similar to

most other resumes however it is

strategically positioning you as a top

candidate for the best data entry jobs

your data entry resume should contain

several sections let's go over each one

first is your contact information at the

top of your resume you should include

your contact information such as your

name phone number and a professional

looking email address that way a

recruiter or hiring manager can easily

contact you to schedule an interview

next is your summary or objective

statement if you have a lot of data

entry experience use this space to write

a career summary statement that

concisely describes your top

accomplishments but if you're newer to

the field go with a career objective

statement that shares your current skill

set and your previous experience that

will help you excel in this position in

either case this section should be no

longer than four lines

next is your work history section in

this section you should list your work

experience in reverse chronological

order putting your current or most

recent position first

each entry should include the company

that employed you how long you worked

there and your job title

then you should add three to five bullet

points under each role that showcases

your significant achievements

next is your education section most data

entry jobs only require a high school

diploma or equivalent so list this

information here if you have a college

degree or if you've completed some

college course work share that here as

well you could also provide the school's

name the degree you've earned if

applicable and the date you graduated

also if applicable

if you're a little light on experience

you can beef this section up a little

include your gpa as long as it's higher

than 3.5 relevant coursework and

participation in related clubs and more

what should be left off a data entry

resume leave off any photos of yourself

or anything that isn't relevant to the

job you're applying for

on your resume as well you may choose to

include a skills section on your resume
