It is not meant to provide comprehensive details about an candidate’s personal strengths; that is why it is submitted alongside other application materials like transcripts, essays, and recommendations. Follow the tips below to make sure your resume properly highlights your professional and academic experience without being too long or repetitive of other materials in your application.  \nGeneral Tips  \n• Professional resumes are usually not longer than two pages; an academic resume or CV (curriculum vitae) can be longer if the applicant has extensive academic experience and publications to include.  \n• Experiences should be listed in reverse chronological order: most recent experience listed first, with the least recent experiences at the end of the section.  \n• Review your resume carefully for mistakes in grammar and spelling prior to submission.  \n• Resumes generally do not include:  \no Personal details, such as physical descriptors (height, weight, eye/hair color), birthdates, or hobbies/interests outside of employment or academics.  \no High school (secondary school) achievements or activities unless they’ve continued into adulthood and are relevant to employment or study.  \no List of recommenders’ contact information; there is a separate section of the application for recommendations.  \nSections to include on your resume:  \nIntroduction (Heading)  \n• Only include your legal name as it will appear on applications, and basic contact information like email and phone number; home address is not necessary.  \n• You may include a short summary, but it is not required.  \no Summary should be 2-3 sentences at most. Include how your intended degree program will contribute to your long-term career goals, as well as a brief overview of your past academic/professional experience. Do not include any specific names of U.S. institutions where you hope to study; the same document will be sent to every school you apply to.  \nEducation  \n• Begin with undergraduate education (anything after secondary school) and list every educational experience to the present, even if you have not completed the degree yet.  \no You may also list non-degree certifications and trainings if they are relevant to the field you are pursuing.  \n• Include each of the following details:  \no Name of institution  \no Location: City/country is sufficient – not a specific address  \no Dates you were enrolled: Month/year is sufficient  \no Degree type and major/specialization  \n• Example:  \nUniversity College London, London, United Kingdom  \nBachelor of Arts in Literature, August 2020 – Present  \n• You may include GPA if it is very high, but it is not necessary to include because you will also be submitting full transcripts with your application.  \nExperience  \n• Most of this section should be professional employment (experience for which you received financial compensation) .  \n• You may include non-professional experience if it is relevant to your professional or academic goals and you had significant responsibility in that role. For example, regular volunteer work done for a charity or professional organization; leadership positions in student organizations; or non-paid contributions to significant publications can all be included on a professional resume.  \no Recent university graduates can include more non-paid experience than mid-or late-career professionals.  \n• For each experience, include the following details:  \no Name of employer/organization  \no Location: City/country is sufficient – not a specific address  \no Dates you were employed: Month/year is sufficient  \no Responsibilities and achievements in that role  \no Example:  \n• University College London, London, United Kingdom Teaching Assistant, August 2021 – May 2022  \no Took attendance, graded exams, and performed other administrative tasks for LIT 101 seminar","cbCaillieDT2U6X9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaillieDT2U6X9","pdf",249004,"English","# General Tips\n## Sections to Include on Your Resume\n### Introduction (Heading)\n### Education\n### Experience\n### Research/Publications\n### Additional Skills/Achievements","[{\"question\":\"How long should a professional resume or CV be?\",\"answer\":\"Professional resumes are usually not longer than two pages.
