This type of resume can be
beneficial when job seekers feel the need to place a special emphasis
on skills, but still need to list their actual work
experience in chronological order.
The combination resume
takes the best features of the functional resume and the chronological
resume.
With the combination resume,
the job seeker will still list the primary sections of Experience,
Education, Skills and may also add additional categories; as needed.
Due to the fact that the
combination resume takes features from two formats and combines them
into one; it can be difficult to keep a combination resume to one page.
It may be necessary for the resume to be two pages in length; however
all effort should be made to keep it at two pages or less.
Take a look at the
combination resume below to see how this job seeker used the elements from the other two formats to her benefit.

As you can see from the
above example, this job candidate used the combination resume format to focus on both her skills and experience.
In the skills
section, she used a blocked format to draw
attention to each individual skill achievement.
The chronological work experience
section allowed her to show that she has a steady
employment record and has moved progressively upward in her
responsibilities and has attained supervisory experience.This type of
combination resume is very easy to read; in order for the prospective
employer to quickly find the information he or she needs to make a
hiring decision.
The education
section in this example of a combination resume was
listed close to the beginning of the resume to highlight the job
seeker’s certification.
