Hobbies/Personal Interests Include hobbies and personal interests if they’re employment-related, not controversial, and showcase pertinent skills and experience that your employment history does not. Awards/Recognition Let the employer know of any awards or recognition you have received (employee of the year, industry awards and so forth). Those are accomplishments worthy of mention. A Note Regarding References Do not include your references or the phrase “references available on request” on the actual resume. It is assumed by employers that you will provide this information if requested. Once an employer asks for your references, provide the names and contact information of three to five people who can speak favorably about your abilities.
