Not sure which resume format to use?
A format decides which section leads and how much room it gets. Compare the three, and see the same resume reflow between them.
Chronological
Start here unless you have a reason not to
Roughly four out of five job seekers should use this format. It asks nothing of the reader, it survives every parser we have tested against, and it rewards a career that has moved in a reasonably straight line. Choose something else only when your recent history genuinely works against you.
Combination
The strongest choice when your title undersells you
This format has become the sensible middle ground. Hiring has moved steadily toward screening on demonstrated skills, and a combination resume speaks to that directly while keeping the dated history that keeps you parseable. If you are tempted by a functional resume, this is almost always the better version of that idea.
Functional
Most people who want this should use a combination resume
We would rather be straight with you than sell you a format that gets your application filtered out. Recruiters tend to read a missing timeline as concealment, and hiring software struggles to extract experience it cannot find dates for. The idea behind this format is sound. Keeping a short dated history costs you a few lines and removes almost every downside, and that is a combination resume.
