A Simple Resume for Driver, Delivery and Security Jobs

For these roles, hiring often happens fast, sometimes within a day or two of a call. Employers and supervisors look for a few basic things before anything else, and your resume should show them in the top half of the page.

If your resume is in English and you are more comfortable in Hindi or another language, that is fine. Keep the words simple. What matters is that the details are correct and easy to read. Ask a friend or family member to check the phone number and spellings once before you print copies.

• Mobile number that is always reachable, with WhatsApp
• Current area and areas you can work in
• Driving licence type and validity, or security training
• Own vehicle (bike, scooter) if needed
• Years of experience and type of work
• Shift availability: day, night, rotational

Drivers should put licence details right below their name. Mention the licence type, such as LMV (car) or HMV/transport (truck, bus), how many years you have held it and the expiry date. Employers often ask about accident and challan history, so be ready to answer honestly.

List the vehicles you have driven and the type of work, such as personal driver for a family, company cab, school van or goods vehicle. Knowledge of city routes and comfort with Google Maps are useful skills.

1. 1Name, mobile number, area and city
2. 2Licence: LMV / HMV, number of years held, valid till
3. 3Vehicles driven: hatchback, sedan, SUV, tempo, truck, automatic or manual
4. 4Experience: employer type, years, duties (for example, office pick-up and drop for staff)
5. 5Routes known: "Know all main routes in Gurugram and South Delhi"
6. 6Languages and timings: "Hindi, basic English; available for night duty"

For delivery jobs, your vehicle and smartphone matter as much as experience. Mention whether you own a bike or scooter, whether your licence is valid, and whether you are comfortable using delivery apps and maps.

If you have worked with food delivery, e-commerce parcels or courier services, write the type of work and approximately how many deliveries you handled per day, only if you know the number. Mention areas you know well, because many employers hire by zone. Browse delivery and driver jobs once your resume is ready.

• Vehicle: Own motorcycle, valid two-wheeler licence and RC
• Phone: Android smartphone, comfortable with Google Maps and delivery apps
• Experience: 1.5 years, parcel delivery in Andheri and Jogeshwari
• Payments: Comfortable handling cash on delivery and UPI collection
• Shift: Available for morning and evening slots, weekends included

Security employers look for training, discipline and the type of sites you have guarded. Mention any guard training certificate, ex-service background if you have one, and experience with residential societies, offices, factories, malls or ATMs.

Include physical details only where relevant for the role, such as height if the job post asks for it. Skills like handling visitor registers, CCTV monitoring, fire safety basics and patrolling are worth listing. You can find openings under security guard jobs.

• Training: Security guard training certificate (year)
• Experience: 3 years at a residential society and 1 year at a warehouse
• Duties: Gate duty, visitor entry register, vehicle checking, night patrol
• Skills: CCTV monitoring, basic fire safety, emergency reporting
• Shifts: 12-hour day or night shifts

Here is how a finished one-page resume for a delivery rider might look. Change every detail to match your own, and keep the same simple order. You can write it in a phone notes app, a free document app or even by hand neatly and click a clear photo, but a typed PDF is best.

Suresh Yadav | 98XXXXXXXX (WhatsApp) | Malad West, Mumbai

Job wanted: Delivery Rider / Delivery Executive. Licence: Two-wheeler, held 4 years, valid till 2031. Vehicle: Own motorcycle with RC and insurance. Phone: Android smartphone, comfortable with Google Maps, delivery apps and UPI.

Experience: Parcel delivery executive, courier company, 2023 – present: daily deliveries across Malad, Goregaon and Kandivali, cash and UPI collection, returns pickup. Before that, helper at a grocery store, 2021 – 2023: home delivery and stock arrangement. Languages: Hindi, Marathi, basic English. Education: 10th pass. Available: Immediately, any shift, weekends included.

Old biodata formats often include caste, religion, father's occupation, height, weight and a long declaration. Most employers do not need these at the application stage, and they make the page crowded. Keep only what helps you get the job.

Also avoid writing very general lines like "hardworking and honest" with nothing to support them. Instead, show it: "Worked 4 years with the same employer" or "Never missed a shift in my last job" says more.

Do not leave out short jobs just because they feel small. Six months as a helper, a season of wedding catering work or a few months driving a tempo for a relative's business all show you can turn up and work. Write them in one line each.

Finally, avoid writing a salary figure on the resume itself. Discuss pay on the call or at the interview, where you can also ask about incentives, overtime and allowances.

Blue-collar hiring often moves to joining very quickly, so keep clear photocopies and phone photos of your documents. Employers may ask for them for police verification, background checks, PF/ESI registration or company records.

Keep originals safe and only show them at the employer's office. Do not send Aadhaar or bank details to unknown numbers before you have confirmed the employer is genuine.

• Driving licence and vehicle RC (for drivers and riders)
• Aadhaar card and PAN card
• Bank passbook or cancelled cheque
• Passport-size photos
• Previous experience or relieving letter, if available
• Training certificate (for security guards)

Many driver jobs include a short driving test. Delivery jobs may have a quick app or route check, and security jobs may check discipline and communication. Reach early, dress neatly and carry your documents.

Be ready for practical questions. Interviewers often ask about your daily routine, how you handle traffic delays, what you would do if a customer is not at home, or how you would deal with an unknown visitor at a gate. Simple, honest answers work best.

Ask about salary, incentives, shift timings, weekly off, fuel allowance and PF/ESI before you join, so there are no surprises later. Pay for these roles varies a lot by city, employer and shift.

You can apply for these jobs from your phone. On BetterJobs, registration and applying are free, and you can upload your resume to fill your profile automatically. You can also search for 10th pass jobs and night shift jobs.

Be careful of anyone who asks for money for a job, uniform, ID card, "training" or a vehicle deposit before you have joined. Genuine employers do not charge job seekers. Never pay for a job, never share OTPs, and always confirm the company's office address before going for an interview.
