1. REVERSE CHRONOLOGICAL RESUME
This format is simple and it can easily track candidate's career progression in a given field. Experience and accomplishments are listed in reverse chronological order, with the most recent job positioned first. Since this format makes it difficult to hide employment gaps, the reverse chronological resume is the most preferred format of employers and recruiters.

2. FUNCTIONAL RESUME
Functional Resume format is skills-based and achievement oriented. Experience and accomplishments are listed in sections with specific headings that extract and show only what is directly applicable to the targeted position. Since it sometimes omits dates, it is the least preferred resume format of employers and recruiters.
3. COMBINATION RESUME
This format is a combination of chronological and functional formats. In this format, work experience and accomplishments are listed in sections with specific headings directly applicable to the targeted position. However, the employment information is listed under a separate category (title, company, location, and dates). As it makes easy for the reader to see how a candidate is qualified for a position while providing an employment history, it has become a favorite resume format amongst recruiters.
