Any help.

Also, all of the below information that I copied from a USA jobs post could be added in here somewhere relevant as I know how to do all of that from training with the Air National Guard. This could be per-tent since most of the jobs I want to eventually get are electronic related jobs. However, starting at the bottom as a roustabout is no problem.

Completes operational checks, inspections, tests, and trouble shooting of line replaceable units (LRUs) which are linked with the integrated systems and, also a number of LRUs which are independent or associated with nonintegrated systems. Isolates unusual malfunctions using technical orders, schematics and wiring diagrams, tools, and test equipment including automatic test equipment. Solves problems by analyzing installation, circuitry, and operating characteristics of the systems. Adjusts and aligns system sensors, transmitters, amplifiers, power supplies, display devices, controls, transponders, actuators, servos, computers and other related components. Removes faulty LRUs for shop repair. Installs serviceable components into aircraft and performs total systems alignment and harmonization in accordance with existing technical orders and directives.

Uses a variety of test equipment such as automatic test equipment (ATE), oscilloscopes, frequency counters, phase-angle voltmeters, optical alignment equipment, digital pitot-static testers, programming units and special purpose test analyzers. Tests and troubleshoots solid state electronic assemblies and subassemblies such as circuit cards, modules, rate generators, electronic control amplifiers, electro-mechanical assemblies, random access memories, programmable read only memories, and various integrated circuits. Identifies faulty part and repairs to level authorized. Reassembles unit after repair, performs alignment and makes shop checks.

(3) Recommends methods to improve equipment performance, technical data, and maintenance procedures by reporting hardware and software malfunctions, initiates material deficiency reports both on equipment and in technical data, and assists in design changes as necessary. Conducts debriefing of aircrews to determine the nature of system malfunctions then documents all maintenance performed and records information related to the system, LRUs, or SRUs on both aircraft and historical records.

(4) Conducts on-the-job training on assigned systems and related support equipment and tasks to include classroom instruction as necessary.

(5) Processes and accounts for due-in from maintenance (DIFM) supply assets. Ensures that material and equipment are properly stored, protected and maintained and that funds are not obligated for material or parts without proper justification.

First of all you're missing a subject line on your resume

it should go right after your name and contact info and before your work history

here is an example from my buddy's resume

[tsimmns]

Subject line? Such as an objective of what I am applying for?

Example..

Objective
To obtain a job as an oil field Roustabout

Is 1-6 the job responsibilities for which you are applying?

[Russian Rocket]

Subject line? Such as an objective of what I am applying for?

Example..

Objective
To obtain a job as an oil field Roustabout

yup exactly...but put a little more than just this one short sentence

[tony_come]

Why have resume when you have Facebook

[tsimmns]

Is 1-6 the job responsibilities for which you are applying?

No. These were taking from a job listing on USA Jobs. I am applying for every entry level electronic technician and roustabout job in the oil and gas field industry. Only 1-2 of that listing are credentials that I have. The rest are really only relevant to Air Force in house work so to speak.

[tsimmns]

Ok, so a subject line. I can add that. I guess the goal is possibly to keep this resume at 1 page and add some of the other information. However, where should I put it since it's only stuff I do once a weekend.

the objective should go between your contact info and the summary of your work experience

are you applying for the Roustabout position?

if so, put something like this:

CAREER OBJECTIVE
To obtain Roustabout position that fully utilizes my skills and abilities.

[tsimmns]

Thanks Russian and that would be enough to fulfill the subject line? What about the rest of it. Does it look ok, terrible, need a major overhaul? Resumes are something that I dread doing.

[downsouth]

What area of the country are you looking in? You may want to try and find a recruiter of some sort to help. I have heard they have a lot to do with Oil Field type positions and such.

[Russian Rocket]

Thanks Russian and that would be enough to fulfill the subject line? What about the rest of it. Does it look ok, terrible, need a major overhaul? Resumes are something that I dread doing.

Personally I would put more than just one sentence in the Subject line...but I know nothing about this industry, so I can't really tell you what else you can add to the objective and your resume.
The format looks fine to me.

[downsouth]

I would also change WORK HISTORY to Experience. I know its ticky tack but resumes are generally a series of small things.

[tsimmns]

Also, I have college work but never listed it on there since I didn't not graduate from the university. Should it be listed, I was just afraid if I put it above my high school in the education section that people would assume I had a degree from there.

[Russian Rocket]

this is actually an excellent advice - most of the recruiters will help you with your resume...some of them could even rewrite the whole damn thing for ya

[tsimmns]

What area of the country are you looking in? You may want to try and find a recruiter of some sort to help. I have heard they have a lot to do with Oil Field type positions and such.

I am looking for any offshore work that works on a rotational basis, Louisiana, Alaska, Texas, heck I would even work internationally. I do plan on attending a job fair in the next month in Louisiana.

[Russian Rocket]

Also, I have college work but never listed it on there since I didn't not graduate from the university. Should it be listed, I was just afraid if I put it above my high school in the education section that people would assume I had a degree from there.

when you have a degree, you'd generally state that on your resume
even if you just took a few classes - add them to your education section

[downsouth]

I would add an education section stating your high school degree plus your college years attended.

SO if you attended Hamburger U for 3 semesters

Hamburger U, 2011-2012

Obviously you wont be able to list a degree but coupled with you military experience may paint a better picture.

[tsimmns]

I have made a format change that looks like this

Military Training

• Integrated Instrument/Flight Controls Systems Apprentice Course – 2014
• Electronic Warfare Apprentice Course – 2012
• Electronic Principles Course – 2012
• Non Destructive Inspection Apprentice Course – 2006

Education

• University of xxxx, 2001 - 2005
• Hatley High School – 2001

I am also considering making the resume 2 pages to include a subject and add key words from that job posting under military experience to highlight my electronic use during drill weekend to make it look like I have more than just a course and actually do some electronic work every now and then.


What about the comma here, should it be a dash? Should I list the high school as 1997 - 2001 to make it look the same throughout.

[Russian Rocket]

What about the comma here, should it be a dash? Should I list the high school as 1997 - 2001 to make it look the same throughout.

yeah get rid of the comma and just do this

Education

• University of xxxx 2001 - 2005
• Hatley High School 1997 - 2001

Good luck, lotta experience.
