Graduate Resume and Curriculum Vitae Guide
WHAT IS A RESUME?
Your markeng tool to prospecve employers in industry, focusing on demonstrang technical and transferable skills.
A concise one- to two-page document that highlights your most relevant experiences and skills tailored for each posion to
which you are applying
Tip: Create a master resume of all your experiences and accomplishments. Use this record to write a one- to two-page tailored
resume for each posion you apply for highlighng your most relevant qualicaons.
WHAT IS A CURRICULUM VITAE (CV)?
An academic version of a resume that provides a professional archive of all your experiences related to your academic career
For graduate students, a CV is typically a few pages. Length can be determined by the amount and depth of your experiences.
A CV should then be tailored to the opportunity you are applying for by ordering your secons from most to least relevant
Use your CV as a professional archive and keep it updated with all your accomplishments
Tip: Consider consulng with a faculty member or advisor for advice and feedback on your CV because they oen serve on hiring
commiees and have experienced an academic job search.
TO GET STARTED WITH YOUR RESUME OR CV:
Make a list of your experiences: Educaon, research, teaching, publicaons/presentaons, organizaons, etc.
Think about your contribuons, skills you used and developed, and your signicant achievements
Begin to cra your resume or CV by organizing these experiences into secons (examples below)
There are many secons that could be a part of your document. It is important to keep in mind that your document should be
specic to your experience and the posion for which you are applying. You have exibility in the choice, naming, and placement of
secons. While your contact informaon and educaon are usually listed rst, other secons can be in any order, based on your
strengths and the requirements of the posion or opportunity. If you are unsure if you should provide a resume or a CV, you may
want to contact the organizaon directly to see which they prefer.
RESUME AND CV SECTIONS
Below is a list of common secons you may use when creang your document. To see examples of these secons, refer to the
example resume and CV at the end of this guide.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
CONTACT INFORMATION:
Include your name, present and/or permanent address, telephone number, and email address.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
SUMMARY OF QUALIFICATIONS:
Found on a resume, a set of 3-5 bullet points (skills statements) that concisely highlight and summarize skills and experiences on
your resume that relate directly to the posion. Use the job descripon to help you determine your most important qualicaons.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
EDUCATION:
Include all instuons of higher educaon you have aended and are currently aending in reverse-chronological order (most
recent rst). Include: The degree you are seeking or obtained, university name, college name, city and state of the university, your
(expected) graduaon date, and GPA. Thesis and dissertaon tles, minors, coursework, academic awards, and study abroad
programs may also be included in this secon.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
THESIS/DISSERTATION:
Provide the tle and a short descripon of your work, its framework, and your ndings, as well as your advisor, commiee
members, and the compleon date. This is most commonly included on a CV.
Page 1
EXPERIENCE:
For each experience (paid or volunteer) include your posion tle, the organizaon name and locaon, and dates of employment.
Then create bulleted skills statements to demonstrate the skills you used and developed and accomplishments you had in the
experience using this formula: Acon Verb + Details + Result (when applicable).
To format skills statements, begin with a bullet point, then use an acon verb (see pg. 4 for list) that describes the skill used (e.g.
“created,” “researched,” etc.) and summarize your responsibilies, accomplishments, and projects. When possible describe the
results of your eorts and quanfy informaon when applicable.
Example of skills statement: Demonstrates teamwork
Weak Skills Statement: “Manufactured diagnosc reagents”
Strong Skills Statement: “Collaborated in a team of 15 to eciently manufacture diagnosc reagents in a GMP environment”
Avoid using personal pronouns such as “I, me, and my” and make sure verbs are in the correct tense (past tense for past
experiences and present tense for current experiences). List your experiences in reverse chronological order (most recent rst).
Consider creang specic experience secons to highlight dierent types of experiences, such as “Related Experience,” “Research
Experience,” “Leadership Experience,” etc.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
TEACHING/RESEARCH EXPERIENCE:
Teaching experiences include informaon such as level of courses taught, university and department names, dates, and a
descripon. Research includes tle/type of research, lab or department names, faculty contribung, and a descripon of the
purpose and ndings. Postdoctoral informaon can also be included in these types of secons. For resumes, focus on the skills you
developed through these experiences that are applicable in industry, rather than focusing on the specic research you conducted
and courses you taught.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
SKILLS:
Include tangible skills, such as language, technical, and laboratory skills. Consider your level of prociency. Avoid including
transferable or “so” skills, such as communicaon skills.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
PUBLICATIONS AND PRESENTATIONS:
Provide a list of published works and presentaons authored or co-authored (those submied and under review), including the
tle, co-authors or presenters, place of publicaons or presentaons, and dates similar to a bibliography page. When included on a
resume the list of publicaons should be selected based on the job descripon. On a CV you will provide a complete list of your
works.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
PROFESSIONAL ASSOCIATIONS:
List professional associaons/organizaons in which you hold memberships, including dates of your involvement and a descripon
of your contribuon if you have been involved beyond general membership.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
AWARDS AND HONORS/FELLOWSHIPS:
List compeve scholarships, fellowships, and assistantships received, names of scholasc honors, and teaching or research
awards you have received, specically those most relevant to the posion.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
CERTIFICATIONS:
Include cercates related to your eld you have earned. List the name of the cercate and its expiraon date.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
GRANTS RECEIVED:

__________________________________________________________________________________________________________
REFERENCES:
When requested as part of an applicaon, include the name, job tle, organizaon name, address, phone number, and email
address for 3-5 individuals. It can also be helpful to provide a brief statement describing your relaonship with each reference. If
included along with a resume, references are on a separate page that is formaed to match your resume. If included as part of
your CV, references may be placed at the end of the document.

TRANSFERABLE SKILLS:
As you begin your search for a career and/or job, it is important to know your qualicaons and communicate these skills to an
employer through your resume, cover leer, and interview. Over the years you have developed many skills through your
coursework, extracurricular acvies, and life experiences. Review the list below and idenfy which transferrable skills you have
and reect on how you acquired these skills. Use this informaon when creang your resume to describe your experiences and the
skills gained from these experiences. For example, if you have researched a topic for class and then wrote, edited, and presented a
nal research paper in front of your peers, you have used skills (gathering informaon, wring, problem-solving, presenng) which
are not limited to that specic academic discipline, but are transferable to many occupaons.

FORMATTING YOUR RESUME OR CV:
The length of your resume or CV will depend on your level of experience and qualicaons. Generally a graduate student
resume should be 1-2 full pages and a CV should be 2-5 pages long. However, based on your experiences, career eld, and the
posion descripon, it could be longer or shorter. Whatever the case, only print your document on one side of the paper and
include your name and the page number at the top of each page.
Avoid using a resume or CV template. This decreases your ability to personalize and make changes as your document evolves.
Your resume or CV should be well organized, without spelling errors, and easy to read. An employer spends a short amount of
me reading your document—it is imperave that the employer clearly sees the most important qualicaons.
To organize your document, you may choose to use bold, italics, all caps, indenng, and bullets. You will want to use these
sparingly to emphasize the most important informaon. Avoid pictures, graphics, non-black ink, shading, and symbols instead
of tradional, round, solid bullet points.
It is a good idea to start with a 1-inch margin on each side. You can expand the margins to half an inch if needed. Font size
should be between 10-12 point, and you will want to choose easy to read font styles, such as Times New Roman, Arial, or
Garamond. Keep font size and style consistent throughout your document (except your name, which should be a larger size).
Present your resume or CV on quality resume paper if you are prinng it for a career fair or interview—choose white or o-
white to ensure your document is easy to read.
If you are subming your resume on a company website, upload as a .doc or .docx to ensure that the document will be
viewable in the company’s applicant tracking system
If you are requested to submit your documents via email, save your resume or CV and cover leer (if applicable) as a PDF
document and upload them as an aachment. Include a brief note in the body of the email stang your purpose.
TIPS FOR RESUME AND CV WRITING:
Make sure that your resume or CV is a unique and personal document. It is a great idea to look at examples of resumes or CVs
but also important to make it your own.
There are some suggesons that we provide when wring a resume or CV, but there are also opons and room for choice. If
you give your document to several people, they may all give you dierent feedback. Beyond some of our strongly suggested
guidelines, resumes and CVs are subjecve. What you include and the format of your resume can vary based on your experi-
ence and the posion.
Be 100% honest and factual. Avoid abbreviaons.
Organize your document so the most important informaon is at the top.
It is not necessary to include all experiences you have had if you can’t t everything on 1-2 pages or experiences are outdated.
Rather, include your most related experiences or those where you demonstrated a high level of skill.
Personal informaon, such as marital status, age, ethnicity, height, and weight should not be included.
Avoid personal pronouns (I, my, we) and complete sentences to describe your experiences. Start your statements with acon
verbs.
Always proofread your resume or CV. Do not solely rely on spell check. Some employers may eliminate candidates based on
errors.
It is suggested that you tailor your resume or CV to the job descripon. You may have more than one version of your
document depending on the posions to which you are applying. You may change the order of secons to list more relevant
areas of your experience closer to the top. Employers may do a key word search of the resumes submied to nd those that
meet the job requirements, so use language included in the job descripon when applicable.
Remember that your resume or CV is YOUR markeng tool. Many mes it is an employer’s rst impression of you. It is also a
work in progress that you will connually revise.
ADDITIONAL RESOURCES:
Visit the CSE Career Center Resource Center to view our Resume Examples Binder and related books in 105 Lind Hall.
Have your resume or CV reviewed by a CSE Career Counselor. You can email to csecareer@umn.edu. If you’d like to meet with
