List the most relevant information at the top of your resume.
When drafting a resume, add your most relevant qualifications on the top of your resume. This top section is what the Recruiter is going to see first. If your most recent position isn’t the most relevant information for which you're applying, consider leading with a skills section or writing a resume summary.
