Using the Chronological resume template, how do I add 2 additional sections
of work history before the Education section?? Copy paste does not work.


The whole resume is set up as a table, so you use the table tools to
add more.

First, it helps to see the table boundaries and cell markers, so you
can tell what you're selecting. Click the Layout tab under Table Tools
on the ribbon, and click the View Gridlines button on the left. Also,
press Ctrl+Shift+8 (equivalent to the ¶ button on the Home ribbon) to
display nonprinting characters including the cell markers (¤).

Move the cursor into the left margin next to one of the work
experience rows, so the arrow points to the upper right. Click to
select that row, and press Ctrl+C to copy to the clipboard.

Now move the cursor to the left of the word "Education", and press
Ctrl+V twice to paste. That puts in two copies of the work experience
row. Replace the text in these new rows with the additional
information.

Press Ctrl+Shift+8 again to turn off nonprinting characters, and click
the View Gridlines button again to turn it off.
