Free Nursing Student Resume Template

Rotations as experience

List each clinical rotation with the facility, unit, hours and the skills you performed, the same way you'd list a job. A CNA, patient care tech or scribe role goes in experience too. Certifications (BLS, CNA) and expected graduation date go near the top. Once you graduate, the New Grad Nurse Resume is the next version, and the Nurse Resume follows after your first year.

Filling the page honestly

Add relevant coursework, simulation lab hours and any volunteering in a care setting. Don't pad with unrelated jobs; a short, specific page reads better. The college resume templates cover other student layouts, and the free resume-building guide is useful if this is your first resume.
