Education: This section lists your educational background, including the name of the institution, degree(s) earned, and any relevant coursework or honors. → Educational Requirements

Work experience: This section should list your work experience in reverse chronological order, starting with your most recent or current job. For each position, you should include the job title, dates of employment, company name and location, and a description of your duties and accomplishments. Be sure to use specific examples and metrics to demonstrate your achievements.
