The Build Your Resume page is where you decide what information will appear in your resume. You're not formatting how the information will appear in your resume (you do that on the Print Your Resume page) you're just deciding what information belongs in this version of your resume and in the order in which you want it displayed.

Rapid Resume Builder divides your resume into different "sections" and those sections into "items". Think of a resume section as something that gets its' own heading in your resume like "Employment History" or "Education" and an item as an individual part of a section. An item in Employment History is one job you've had while an item in Education might represents one degree or certification you're earned. Some sections like Contact Information and Career Objective will have only one item while others like Employment History or Education will have many.

The Build Your Resume page lets you choose what sections go into your resume then add, edit, and reorder both the resume sections and the items within those sections. You can include as many or as few sections in your resume as you want to and decide which items appear in what order in each section too. This lets you quickly customize your resume for a particular opportunity by emphasizing certain parts of your experience or education while leaving others off your resume completely.
