How to Format a Laundry Supervisor Resume

We normally recommend that job seekers pick a resume format based on the number of years they have worked. Usually, candidates with over 10 years of experience should use a chronological resume, job seekers with 3-9 years of experience use a hybrid resume, and applicants with less than three years use a functional resume.

However, a supervisor can use a hybrid or chronological resume to highlight their career knowledge or to demonstrate technical knowledge and accomplishments based on skills. We created two candidates with equivalent experience to demonstrate this. Candidate A uses a hybrid resume to explain what managerial tasks they accomplished under each unique job title. This allows hiring managers to track promotions or growth opportunities.

Candidate B uses a functional resume to highlight responsibilities based on the core needs of most laundry facilities. Grouping accomplishments and tasks under skills categories like site maintenance and business management help them demonstrate their managerial knowledge and potential.
