Construction Resume Writing

When seeking a construction job, either as an engineer, foreman, laborer, etc., it is important that you showcase your experiences and skills on your resume appropriately, to convince hiring managers that you are the suitable candidate for the job. Your construction resume should contain your construction work experience and highlight the skills you utilised and gained working on various construction projects. So, to help you create a winning construction resume, we will use the approved industry format and style outlined below, to showcase your expertise and the value you will be bringing to the company.

Contact Details
This section, which will be placed right at the top where hiring managers can find it easily, will include all the details needed to contact you, such as your email address, phone number, home address, and more.

Summary/Profile
In this section, we will summarise your construction work experiences, while highlighting the specific trade you work in. The sentences, although short and to the point, will draw attention to your strengths and what makes you the best-qualified candidate for the job. An example of a construction profile statement could be: “Dependable construction laborer, with 12+ years experience in construction and renovation of all types of residential and commercial construction projects. Skilled in the use of various construction tools, including heavy duty equipment to complete projects in due time and according to clients’ specification.”

Key Skills
Here, we will highlight specific key construction skills that are often looked for by hiring managers when reviewing resumes. These include all the relevant skills gained and utilized in previous work experiences that are beneficial to the position you are applying for, such as;
  • Reading Blueprints and Design
  • Cost Estimates Development
  • Construction Site Management
  • Heavy Equipment Operation
  • Bricklaying, Carpentry, Tiling, Roofing, Plumbing, Electrical Engineering, etc.

Construction Work Experience
Your previous work experience can give hiring managers a clue as to how much value you can add to the position you are applying for. Therefore, in this section, we will outline your previous construction work experiences, and emphasize on your duties and achievement in your previous roles using action verbs such as “accelerate,” “supervise,” “developed,” etc. Examples of construction work experiences that can be highlighted in your resume include;
  • Oversaw and accelerated the completion of a residential construction project budgeted at $50 million .
  • Supervised a crew of up to 10 electricians to complete the wiring of a 175 store shopping mall.
  • Developed a new construction procedure that cut the cost of a construction project by 25%.

Construction Education
Although, some construction work, such as general laborers, do not require you to have a formal qualification, others such as plumbers, electricians, tilers, etc, require one. In this section, we will outline your educational qualifications, starting from your most recent or formal apprenticeship program, as well as any other professional qualifications. We will include details such as Institution Name, Graduation Year, and more, which can give you an advantage over your competitors.

Construction Course/Training/Other Info
In this section, we will showcase every additional course or training that you have undergone over the years, which are relevant to the position, as well as memberships in professional organisations. Every detail will be outlined in reverse chronological order and will include the name of the certifying company and the year of certification.

​Keywords
Specific keywords present in job advertisement are often used by hiring managers to find suitable candidates to fill the advertised position. We will include several keywords and phrases used in the advertisement of the job you want to apply for, to make your resume stand out from the crowd.
