15.7. Employer Section. (Required)
The employer section has the name, address and an optional company summary statement for each company.
What are Employer summary statements.
An employer summary statement is a short sentence that would give the reader an understanding of what the employer did. Include an employer summary statement if you think the reader is unlikely to know the employer, or you need to add some context for each employer.
For example, listing a company simply as “Hotel Le Grand, Anytown, PA” gives the reader some information. Adding an employer summary statement such as “350-bed, 4 star hotel located downtown” gives the reader a context for your experiences, and they can better see how your experiences relate to their needs.
How to construct an employer summary statement.
As the above example shows the key is to include only the most important two or three aspects of the employer, such as their size, industry or locations.
Examples:
A $200m, multi-national manufacturer of precision measuring devices.
or
50 person computer software consulting practice.
or
Large full service bank with 20 local branch offices.
