Physician Assistant Resume and Curriculum Vitae

When I was applying for my first job as a physician assistant I searched all over to find a good sample of a physician assistant resume, but they are few and far between.

So in the name of helping other PAs like yourself here your go.

I have used this template to apply for three jobs and was offered each. I am not sure how much of this is the resume, but you get the point.

These are customizable templates that are available in Microsoft Word format. You can download these (and other templates) for a discount when you purchase with a "like" or if you prefer it is available for a few bucks by following the links below.

I have several templates and bundles available, you can see all the options here.

Of course, this is my resume, I am sure yours will be much more interesting and filled with desirable attributes guaranteed to land you your dream job.

Best of luck!
