Resume examples and samples by industry

Resume writing tips

How to adapt any resume example

• 01

  Lead with outcomes, not duties

  Replace “responsible for…” with what changed — revenue, time saved, quality, risk reduced, or customers helped — and name the tools you used.

• 02

  Mirror the job ad’s language

  Copy exact skill and title phrasing from the posting into your summary and skills list so ATS parsers and recruiters recognize a match.

• 03

  Keep one master profile, many variants

  Store the full truth in DocuResume, then tailor a short, honest version per role instead of inventing experience for every application.

Do you have resume examples and samples for Australia?

Yes. Browse role samples below, then pair with the Australian / Seek resume template and Aussie resume format guide so spelling, length, and contact norms match local hiring.

Are there graduate and intern resume examples by industry?

Yes. Every industry section includes graduate and intern samples (for example Software Engineering Graduate, Finance Intern, Nursing Graduate) plus mid and senior roles. Early Career also has general student and trainee templates.

Can I search for a specific job title?

Yes. Use the search box on this page to filter by role, industry, skills, or keywords — for example “nurse”, “data analyst”, or “marketing intern”.

What is the difference between a resume example and a resume template?

An example shows sample wording for a specific role; a template is the blank layout you fill in. Both live on this page — browse role examples above, then pick a matching template from the resume templates section.

Are the resume examples ATS-friendly?

Samples use clear section headings, single-column structure, and keyword-ready skills. Avoid tables and graphics when you export for Workday, Greenhouse, Seek, or Indeed.

How do I write better resume bullets?

Use action verb + task + tool + measurable result. Each role page includes writing tips and quantified sample bullets you can rewrite with your real numbers. See also how to make a resume stand out.
