๐Ÿ‘ DAY 14: Resume: Additional Information Section ๐Ÿ‘

Tell them anything else they should know...

Happy Saturday and welcome back! In addition to your education and experience sections, your resume can have an โ€œadditional information" section where you share skills, passions, and interests that are not covered in other parts of your resume.

Get ready for a quick 30-second read...

๐Ÿ‘ What should this section include? ๐Ÿ‘

Here are examples of bullet points you can include in the additional information section:

  • Languages

    • Example: English (Native), Spanish (Working Proficiency), Chinese (Conversational)

  • Skills

    • Example: Adobe Photoshop, Microsoft Excel, Python

  • Interests

    • Example: social media marketing, basketball, Gen Z brands, debate

    • Note: it is acceptable to share both professional-related passions as well as those less related to professional endeavors, as long as they are not embarrassing / will not hurt your candidacy

Please note that there are plenty of other things you can list in your additional information section outside of those listed above. Feel free to share what you think best shows your skills and passions. Weโ€™ll see you again tomorrow to work on formatting your resume!
