The document discusses different types of resumes and the information they should contain. A resume is a set of experiences used in job applications. There are two main types: chronological, listing jobs in reverse date order, and functional, focusing on skills over experience. A functional resume is best for those without much work history, while a chronological resume is standard for people with several years of experience. Both should include contact information, objectives or goals, experience or accomplishments, education, and optionally references.
