Which resume format should you use?
Reverse chronological
You have a steady work history. This is the format almost every recruiter and ATS expects by default.
Functional
You're changing fields or have gaps in your employment. Leads with skills rather than a job-by-job timeline.
Combination
You're early career or have worked consistently but for only a few employers. Blends a skills summary with a shorter chronological history.
This template uses the reverse chronological format: the one most cash in transit officers should default to, since most Australian recruiters and ATS software expect it.

Experience: example bullet points
- Completed scheduled collections and deliveries across bank branches, retail sites and ATM sites, keeping to timed windows so store staff could balance tills without waiting on us.
- Ran pre-start checks on the armoured vehicle, radio and tracking system each shift, logging faults early so vehicles were pulled from service before they became a roadside problem.
- Reconciled consignments against handheld scanner records at every stop, which cut handover corrections from around a dozen a week to one or two.
- Varied arrival times and entry points on advice from the control room, so approaches to high traffic sites stayed unpredictable.
- Handled customer queries at the counter calmly during pickups, keeping the run on schedule without rushing the consignment checks.
- Coached new officers through loading, sealed tin handling and radio protocol, and they moved onto regular crew rosters within their first month.
Education
Certificate III in Security Operations (CPP30619) with cash in transit electives is the usual entry pathway, alongside a current state security officer licence and a driver licence; some officers come in with a Certificate IV or diploma plus transport or retail experience.

Getting past ATS screening
- Match the specific skills, certifications and terms used in the job ad, not just your own wording for the same thing.
- Keep formatting simple: no tables, text boxes, columns, headers/footers or graphics. Parsers frequently drop content placed in these.
- Submit as .docx or PDF unless the job ad specifies otherwise.
- Use standard section headings (Experience, Education, Skills) rather than creative alternatives.
- List your core skills and technical competencies in their own section so a keyword scan can find them instantly.
This is a starting point, not a guarantee of interviews. Tailor every bullet point to your own real experience and the specific job ad.
