Here are the three most important things to focus on while creating your police resume: 

Clear, specific language. Make it easy for potential employers to understand what you’ve accomplished in your career and why you’re the best person for this position. Our resume writers are experts at presenting work experience in quantifiable, specific ways that will capture recruiters’ attention. For example, instead of using general language to describe your last position in the professional experience section, your StandOut writer might include phrases like “responded to approximately 65 emergency calls per month,” “successfully closed more than 50 cases in 2022,” or “reduced crime in 10-mile patrol area by 30% between 2018 and 2020.”

Keywords. The best way to target your law enforcement resume to a specific position is to start with the job listing. Your StandOut Resumes writer will help you find all the important keywords and qualifications in the position description, then incorporate as many of them as they can in your resume. The employer or recruiter has already told you what they’re looking for — if they see those keywords in a quick skim of your resume, it’s more likely that they’ll keep reading and consider you for the job.

Attention to detail. Your law police resume should show a potential employer who you are, how you can be reached, what kind of work you’ve done, why you’re qualified for the position, and whether you have the required training for the specific law enforcement position. Our law enforcement resume writers will present your information in a clear, logical way that highlights your most relevant experience, qualifications, certifications, etc.
