What to put in each part of your driver resume
Objective
One sentence on the job you want and what you bring. If it fits you, adapt this one: Licensed driver looking for a driver job, ready to work early or late shifts, drive safely and always arrive on time.
Licence and certificates
Your licence and its number, right under your objective. Anyone paid to drive needs a professional driver's license from the LTO. TESDA offers a national certificate for this work: Driving NC II.
Skills
Four or five the job post asks for and you've really used, like safe driving and following traffic rules, or knowing local roads and using maps well.
Work experience
Newest job first. Under each one, three to five lines that start with what you did, with a number where you can: trips, deliveries and kilometers.
Education
Your school, what you finished and the year. Fresh graduate? Put it above work experience.

Driver resume questions
Where does my driver's license go on a driver resume?
Put it right under your objective so employers see it first. Write that it's a professional driver's license from the LTO, and its number.
Should I list the Driving NC II certificate?
Yes, if you have it. Put it under Licence and certificates with the year you got it. It helps most when you're new to driving.
Which skills should I pick for a driver resume?
Pick the ones that match the post, like safe driving, knowing local roads and arriving on time. Keep it to five or fewer.
Should I put my birthday or a photo on it?
Leave your birthday off. Since 2016, Republic Act 10911 has made it unlawful for employers in the Philippines to require your age or birth date while you apply. Leave the photo off too, unless the job post asks for one.
Should I send it as a PDF or a Word file?
PDF, unless the job post asks for Word. A PDF looks the same on every screen. Put your name in the file name, like Arnel-Buenaventura-Resume.pdf.
