Only list schools you
received degrees from or
are currently pursuing a
degree from.
−
If you list degrees from for-
eign institutions, provide a

separate section, such as
‘Additional Experience’.
−
Start descriptions with
active verbs (i.e., developed,
led, created, organized,
etc.).
−
Focus on accomplishments
and outcomes of your
experiences, not just
responsibilities or duties.
−
Since dates aren’t as impor-
tant as job title and descrip-
tions of what you did, it’s
better to put the dates on
the right side rather than
the left.
