faith45605 Posted July 28, 2023 Share Posted July 28, 2023 Hey all, would any be able to give me some input about what programs look for when asking for cv/resume? Is there a difference between a cv and resume, and if so which is preferable? How far back in life should we go in a list of accomplishments/abilities/experiences? And does anyone have any professional templete they recommend to use? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also made it easier to copy each thing into CASPA when writing about each of my experiences and listing the # of hours for each. I included my education, clinical and non-clinical work experience, volunteer experience, research, leadership roles in extracurriculars, and awards/recognition/achievements in that order. I only included things that happened during undergrad. I also had a resume with pertinent information just in case, but I think I only used it to apply to jobs, not PA school.
