The most common way to organize a résumé is

A) functionally.
B) retrospectively.
C) chronologically.
D) organically.

The most common way to organize a résumé is chronologically, which lists work experience and education in reverse chronological order with the most recent experience listed first. This allows the employer to quickly see the candidate's most recent work history and accomplishments. Functionally organizes skills and experience by category and is typically used when a candidate is changing industries or has gaps in employment. Retrospectively and organically are not typical résumé organization methods.
