Cruiser Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 I just graduated from a university in Southern California. I was a busy D1 college athlete who also worked part time as a CNA. Consequently, I have no published papers, research projects or volunteer hours. What can I put on my CV?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mylan Posted July 6, 2022 Share Posted July 6, 2022 Hi, My understanding is that your CV should just be your standard one page resume. At least that's what I did for mine. List any job experiences, research, clinical experience, or even volunteer experience. You can put down your undergraduate institution as well.

Ksett Posted July 7, 2022 Share Posted July 7, 2022 My CV had two pages and I wrote it exactly how CASPA wanted, breaking all categories down under patient care experiences, healthcare experiences, volunteer, shadowing, leadership, teaching, etc. I wrote an article on how to write CV for CASPA and you can check out the details here: https://enterthepa.com/the-best-way-to-tailor-your-pre-pa-resume/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
