Commonly included:
- Contact information
- Employment history
- Education
Do not include (unless there’s a specific, job-related reason):
- Religion — usually irrelevant and can invite bias; only include if it’s directly relevant (e.g., applying to a faith-based organization and you want to show affiliation).
- Disabilities — typically unnecessary and protected by law; only disclose if you need accommodations or if you choose to share it for a specific reason.
You can also add optional sections that employers expect: skills, certifications, summary/objective, volunteer work, awards, languages, and professional memberships.
