I found it more effective when you list your skills and abilities right under the objective and then start with education followed by work experience. Interests and Hobbies should come before your references. So basically:

Objective

Skills and Abilities

Education

Work Experience

Interests and Hobbies

References

I would say;

Objective/Profile (whichever you like, theses are different from each other)

Summary of qualification

Achievement/Awards

Professional Experience

Education

Certification and Licensing

References (if you like to include)

This is how I have done for myself.

Regardless of the type of resume you create, a number of key elements overlap all successful resumes.

1.       Contact Information. Since your goal is for an employer to contact you -- either for a first interview or for a follow-up interview -- you must give employers ways to reach you -- Website address/URL (if available), city and state only (no street address), a single phone number (no second/third number, no fax number), and a single email address.

2.       Accomplishments. Focus the descriptions of your experiences on accomplishments, not duties and responsibilities. Accomplishments, especially those you can quantify, will sell you to a potential employer. Read more in our article, For Job-Hunting Success: Track and Leverage Your Accomplishments and its companion tool, Job-Seeker Accomplishments Worksheet.

3.       Education/Training. Include all the pertinent information regarding education, degrees, training, and certifications. Spell out names of degrees. Include the educational institution's name and location. If currently enrolled in an educational program, list expected graduation month and year. Graduates should list graduation year if within the last10 years.

4.       Appearance. The first impression of your resume -- and of you as a job-seeker -- comes from your resume's appearance. Your resume should be well-organized with consistent headings, fonts, bullets, and style. Never overcrowd the resume. Leave some "white space" so that important points can stand out; and try to make your margins between .75" and1" on all sides. For print resumes, use subdued color paper, such as white, ivory, beige, light gray.

5.       Avoidance of Typos/Misspellings. Take the time to carefully write, rewrite, and edit your resume. Be sure to meticulously proofread your resume for misspellings and typos. Resumes with errors get filed in the trash can.

6.       Targeted and focused. Tailor your basic resume to specific jobs and specific employers. There is simply no excuse for having one generic resume anymore. Tweak each resume you submit to the specific job you are seeking or to the specific employer.

Consideration on the prospective employer situation to screen applicants resume is a must on making resume. Thinking that Competition on application for a certain position are  intense and huge, and employer don't have time to read the details of your resume   in second,  and so therefore resume should be concised, precised in presentation. Below of the  profile write your qualification summary ( WOW or strengths)  is the key point to catch the employers attention. Meaning  the strong points that you can do on the position that you apply for and how far you can help to carry the vision and mission of the organization. Then follow by your work experience as support of your qualification summary and then rest details.
