π DAY 12: Resume: Education Section π
Let's break down one of the most asked about topics
Almost Friday! Welcome back as we dive into our new topic for the next few emails: resumes. Every resume needs to have at least two core sections: education and experience. Today, we will be beginning with the education section.
Get ready for a quick 30-second read...

π What should this section include? π
Name of your school
Location of your school (city, state)
Graduation month/year (or expected graduation month/year)
Degree earned (or working towards)
Major
Cumulative GPA
Optional: honors
Optional: membership*
Note 1: Membership is also referred to as extracurricular activities. You should only list a few organizations in this section. Youβll have plenty more opportunities to share details of extracurriculars in your experiences section, we'll be talked about tomorrow.
Note 2: If you're in high school, your education section should list your high school education (not anything before).
Note 3: If you're in college, your education section can list your high school education, but it does not need to. Most important is having your college information listed.
Note 4: If you are a senior in college or graduated from college, it is recommended that you donβt have your high school education listed.
