Answer to Question 1

Answer: D
Explanation: D) Using the first person in a rsum can sound repetitive and even self-serving, because you are providing a detailed account of your own accomplishments. Use strong action verbs in the past tense at the beginning of rsum phrases instead.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: FALSE
Explanation: Combination rsums still maintain a separation between the education and employment background sections on a rsum, listing them in different sections.
