Create ResumeThe education section on a picker packer resume should be simple, relevant, and tailored to warehouse roles. Include your highest level of education (high school diploma or GED), the school name, and graduation date. Add any job-related training or certifications like warehouse safety or forklift awareness. Place it after experience if you have work history, or higher if you’re entry-level.
This section is not about academic prestige. It’s about showing basic qualifications, reliability, and job readiness.
Your education section should focus only on what matters for warehouse hiring managers.
School name (high school or equivalent)
Diploma or GED
Graduation or completion date
Warehouse-related training (inventory, shipping, receiving)
OSHA or workplace safety certifications
Forklift awareness or logistics basics
Placement depends entirely on your experience level.
Place education after your work experience.
Reason: Employers care more about your ability to pick, pack, scan, and meet quotas.
Place education above or near the top.
Reason: It becomes your main qualification.
Experienced candidates → education last
Entry-level candidates → education near top
Short courses or online certifications
GPA (only if strong and recent)
Honors or awards (only if relevant to reliability or discipline)
Recruiter insight: Most warehouse hiring managers scan resumes in under 10 seconds. They want to confirm you meet basic requirements and can follow instructions. Keep this section clean and easy to read.
Use a consistent and professional format.

If you’re a recent graduate, your education section plays a bigger role.
Graduation completion
Attendance consistency (if applicable)
Any hands-on or technical classes
Work ethic indicators
Good Example
Northview High School, Dallas, TX
High School Diploma
Graduated: May 2023
Relevant Coursework: Logistics Basics, Physical Education

Any physical or operational training

Transferable skills learning

Training: Warehouse Safety Workshop, Inventory Systems Basics

Graduated: [Month Year]
Training/Certifications: [Optional, relevant only]

Only include training related to:
Warehouse work
Safety
Logistics
Inventory
Use the same formatting style across your resume.
Do NOT include:
Elementary or middle school
Unfinished irrelevant college programs
Irrelevant coursework
Weak Example
This does NOT help for warehouse roles.
Weak Example
No school name or date → looks incomplete.
Entry-level candidates placing education at the bottom reduces visibility.
If you didn’t complete a degree and it’s not relevant, leave it out.
Hiring managers for picker packer roles are not evaluating academic excellence.
They are looking for:
Basic education completion
Ability to follow instructions
Safety awareness
Reliability and consistency
Your education section should reinforce:
“I am ready to work in a warehouse environment.”
