Put Your Education to Work |
|

Whether
you're a Harvard-educated MBA or recently obtained your
GED, you can use your resume's education section to
outshine your competition. If you are unsure about the
best way to present your education, here are some common
scenarios and strategies:
Where to Place Education?
The best placement depends on what you are trying to
emphasize.
Place experience before education if you have five or
more years of experience related to your goal. Hiring
managers will be more interested in your job
accomplishments than your education.
Place education before experience if you are a recent
graduate or have less than five years of work
experience. If you are changing careers and have
continued your education to support your new goal,
education should come first. Academic and scientific
professionals typically place education before
experience on their CVs.
The GPA
If you are a student or recent graduate, list your GPA
if it is 3.0 or higher. Consider including a lower GPA
if you are in a very challenging program. Add your major
GPA if it's higher than your overall GPA. If your school
doesn't use the standard 4.0 scale, avoid confusion by
listing the scale (e.g. GPA: 4.1/4.5). As your career
progresses, college GPA becomes less important and can
be removed.
Honors
Include academic honors to show you excelled in your
program. For example:
Ace College -- Springfield, Illinois
BA in Accounting (cum laude), June 2002
Delta Gamma Delta Honor Society, Dean's List, GPA: 3.9
New Grads
Students and new grads with little related work
experience may use the education section as the
centerpiece of their resumes, showcasing academic
achievements, extracurricular activities, special
projects and related courses. For example:
ABC College -- Brooklyn, New York
BA in Communications, concentration in advertising,
anticipated graduation December 2004
Senior Project: Currently completing mock advertising
campaign for Coca-Cola (billboard/print/TV/radio ads,
direct-mail campaign and press releases).
Related Coursework: Advertising, Advertising Writing,
Direct Mail and Telemarketing, Media Plans in
Advertising, Marketing and Advertising, Public
Relations, Broadcasting DegreeIncomplete
If you abandoned an educational program, list the number
of credits completed or the type of study undertaken.
For example:
College of Staten Island -- Staten Island, New York
Completed 90 credits toward a BA in political science,
1981 to 1984
Experienced Job Seekers
If you are focusing more on experience than education,
list the basic facts regarding your degree, including
institution name, location, degree, major and date. For
example:
New Jersey College -- Newark, New Jersey
BS in Economics, Minor in Psychology, June 1983
High School Information
Include your high school or GED information if you don't
have any college credits. If you have college credits,
remove references to high school. |
