Personal Details

In personal details include the following:

Name
Contact Number
Email Address - please create one which has your name in it in a professional manner. e.g. firstname.lastname@gmail.com not luv182tonite@xyz.com
Marital Status (debatable, but a must for certain industries)
Postal Address
Date of Birth

Avoid the following:

Name(s) of your spouse/ children/ parents etc
Star Sign
Height or weight - unless specified - e.g. airline cabin crew resumes
Physical characteristics
Religion
Donor status
Vehicle owned - again, mention this only for job ads where it is asked for, e.g. sales

It is a good idea to put your name & contact details (number & email Id) on the top of the resume.

The rest can go as a footer or at the end of the resume.
