Carpet Cleaning Technician Resume

There is a lot of physical work involved in the job of a carpet cleaning technician. The technician has to climb stairs, push and move furniture, lift cleaning equipment weighing around 23 kg, bend, crawl, stoop, and stand for longer hours of the day. Besides physical aspect, he must also hold knowledge about different types of carpet fibers, and reaction of cleaning chemicals on them. While employers usually train him on the job, a before-hand training in chemical handling with a certification from the Institute of Inspection, Cleaning, and Restoration Certification (IICRC) will boost the job prospect.

Therefore, a carpet cleaning technician resume must include knowledge of different types of carpet fibers, and cleaning chemicals and equipment. As the job holder will be providing cleaning service to residential and commercial clients, customer service skills to sale cleaning products and increase client database are also necessary to draw employer's attention.
