<p>Should the list of activities/positions/awards in resumes be chronological (most recent first) or functional (most important first) in order? I've read that most EMPLOYERS prefer chronological, since job applicants should have careers that are growing and without any suspicious time lapses or anything. But is it different for a high school student applying to college?? If my resume were functional, it would catch attention much quicker than if it were in chronological order, simply because I am participating in multiple organizations and my most important experiences may not be the most most recent.</p>
<p>Thanks for your advice!</p>
