For our resume book: Elizabeth Gill For your other resumes: Elizabeth Gill 34 Hillhouse Avenue, New Haven CT

YALE UNIVERSITY New Haven, CT MA Global Affairs, Expected May 2015 PRINCETON UNIVERSITYPrinceton, NJ BA Economics, 2008

 Relevant coursework especially if your degree title isn’t obviously linked to your current interests  Your concentration, minor, or focus of study  Study abroad (but keep it SIMPLE)  A brief description of major academic awards

 Something like “John Doe Award, 2009; Jane Smith Scholarship, 2008” doesn’t mean anything to your reader  Instead say: “Received awards for outstanding achievement in major.” Or “Awarded University’s Highest Honor for Community Leadership”  Remember – most readers will assume that because you are a Yale MA student, you must have been an outstanding undergraduate … so you don’t need to overdo this section!

 Think about how you want to divide your experience – is all of it relevant to your goals?  Do you want to have more than one experience section to distinguish between different experiences or skill sets?

ORGANIZATION Location TitleDate to Date (ACTION VERB! – don’t use “worked”) Start with an action verb to describe what you did and the skills you want to relay to the reader. If you can quantify any part of the description, please do!

PEACE CORPSBeijing, China Education Volunteer Developed curriculum and taught 45 high school students English, improving student test scores 45% from the previous year

Languages Computer Skills Leadership Published papers (many? = separate page) Certifications Conference presentations Activities? Only in certain cases! Citizenship?

Is my format consistent? From my resume, how do I come across? Have I included everything relevant without being redundant?

Please have a colleague and/or friend look at your resume. Please submit your resume as soon as possible – a great way to get a head start! We look forward to welcoming you to YALE!
