Hybrid / combination resume template
A hybrid resume (also called a combination resume) opens with a skills or qualifications section, then lists your full work history in reverse chronological order. You get the skills-first benefits of a functional resume without hiding your timeline, which is why recruiters accept it. It's ideal for career changers, people with diverse experience, and senior professionals. Reorder sections in CVMark to build one, and preview it free.

Add a Relevant Skills section above Experience for a clean hybrid layout.

If your recent titles already match the job, a chronological resume is simpler.
A functional resume groups everything by skill and lists jobs briefly. A hybrid adds full job entries with bullets, so recruiters can see what you did where. That's why hybrids are generally safer. See functional resume template.
