Question I have to send a resume for my grad school application. I got my bachelor's degree in 2003. Given that I graduated that long ago, should I include clubs and organizations that I was involved during college or should my resume be the same as if I was applying for a job?
Answer Hi, Lamika.
Most grad programs are looking for more than just a resume. They usually want what is called a personal statement or letter of intent.
I have a complete, free booklet on writing these, along with other strategies for making sure you can submit a competitive application. You can access this booklet at http://www.cuttsreviews.com/jcutts/ Follow the links to the free booklet and fill out the form.
If you would like to check in with me personally about your resume, statement, GRE, etc., you are welcome to give me a call at 800-353-4898, day or evening. I'll be glad to spend some time with you free of charge to make sure you are on track.
