Focus on the main goal of a resume, which is to describe your experience and education relevant to the position for which you are applying. Following the tips below is a great starting point when drafting your resume. You can stop by the Arts and Sciences Career Success Office during walk-in hours to have your resume draft reviewed (details about walk-in hours are found at [http://asc-careersuccess.osu.edu](http://asc-careersuccess.osu.edu)). Additionally, some of the company recruiters who attend the Actuarial Science Club meetings may be willing to give you pointers on your resume.  \n15  \nInclude your GPA. Actuarial Science recruiters consider GPA an important factor when evaluating candidates. You should always include GPA on your resume if your cumulative average is above a 3.0. If your average falls below that threshold, consider including your major GPA if it is over 3.0. You can find your major GPA on your degree audit.  \nHighlight professional examinations. Aside from GPA, having taken and passed SOA/CAS exams is the most important qualification for many employers. Every effort should be made to take these exams as early as your program of study allows. It is important to note that you can include pending exams on your resume. Usually, a resume only presents skills and experiences that have been completed or are in progress; an exception is made for pending actuarial exams.  \nInclude technology and language skills. Technology and language skills are highly marketable to employers in the actuarial field. Be sure to include all software packages you have used for classroom assignments or independent research. Describe your level of languageskill (e.g., proficient, advanced, fluent) for verbal and written levels.  \nHighlight relevant coursework. Employers are interested in confirming that you have completed coursework specific to your major as well as supplementary courses that provide transferable skills, such as business communications. It is important to focus on what courses are most relevant to the position for which you are applying. Read job descriptions carefully and customize your resume to include the courses that are truly most relevant to that specific job.  \nEmphasize relevant experience. The relevant experience section of your resume may consist of internships, research, tutoring, or part-time jobs that have allowed you to gain knowledge, skills and experience that relate to the opportunity you’re seeking. The Additional Experience section (at the bottom of the resume example) includes items that are valuable but don’t necessarily relate to your ideal job.  \nFeature accomplishments from internships. Recruiters are keenly interested in what you have accomplished during your internships or field related work experience. Be sure to describe your accomplishments instead of simply listing your job duties. Consider using Problem-ActionResult (PAR) statements to formulate your bullet points:  \nIdentify a problem or challenge you encountered during your internship, the actions you took, and the result your efforts achieved.  \nInclude activities and leadership experiences. Recruiters are interested in well-rounded students who have integrated leadership roles and other activities into their undergraduate experience. When selecting entries for this section of your resume, there is no need to list every activity you have participated in. If one of your activities relates to the position for which you are applying, list it first. Not every entry needs a descriptive bullet as shown on this sample, as some activities entail duties that are commonly understood. For instance, volunteer roles with nationally known nonprofits can be kept to one line:  \nHabitat for Humanity Volunteer, Columbus, OH, March-August 2012.  \nCenter for Career and Professional Success 100 Den","cbCaieN2mFY9MoyA","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieN2mFY9MoyA","pdf",94804,"English","# Resume Tips\n## GPA and Exam Highlights\n## Skills and Coursework\n## Experience and Internship Accomplishments","[{\"question\":\"What GPA should be included on an actuarial science resume?\",\"answer\":\"Include cumulative GPA if it is above 3.0.
