Assistant Prof (though it’s not the same)? Also, after being on a couple of search committees, I now understand that the CV is truly a genre unto itself and you’d better master it if you ever hope to get a job. Journal. In fact, when I look at the CVs of people I know, the one that deviates the most from the advice here is one of a person that I know made two of his moves because he was recruited to apply. If you want a different look, small caps is an option. Where do these go? Hi all… does anyone know how to list a graduate certificate under education? Hi Karen, I’m of two minds about this advice. Excellent blog! I’m not sure how to indicate this in my timeline of Professional Appointments. (I don’t get to choose the course titles because they are set by the university.). A (hopefully unasked) brief questions about where conference organisation should go; I currently have it listed under the main heading ‘Conference Activity’ and the subheading ‘Conferences Convened,’ but I’m unsure if it should be seperated from panels organised and papers given. This year, I served as a reader on a dissertation committee, since I was told it would be a good thing to have 3 years out of grad school. Hi Dr. Karen, thanks for the wonderful advice. I was just updating my CV and was reminded that I still need to figure out what goes under ‘invited talks’. I have a question related to the other invited talk questions. I mean, in general are invited talks the talks we give at someone else’s invitation? I know my cc and other local cc’s value it a great deal, but what about other colleges and universities. I thought it made sense to group a recurring event (with all its relevant dates) rather than list each separately with its individual date. Secondly, should my focus be on publishing first for a few years before pursuing any type of college level position? I just reformatted my (very UK) CV according to your guidelines and, amazingly, my CV is now not only shorter but more crisp. I have a question about the ordering of academic awards and fellowships. (I know you said not to do edited volumes, but that ship has sailed.) She has a super handy blog post here about her rules for the academic CV. Huge waste of computer memory – but VERY rewarding when it comes to appraisal and you reflect on what you have achieved each year What if you declined a postdoctoral fellowship? Are you having some form of mid-life crisis? I would say that could go under Research Experience (a new section I added to the post). I was born in the USA but I grew up in Europe, where I completed my education. Thank you very much for the tip, I will look him up! Thanks. I’m straddling sociology and media studies/communication.

I did not read every comment but I did wonder what you thought of using an extended page number: Name, m/dd/yr, page X on all pages but the first in either the lower left bottom or upper right top. Hi Karen, But don’t do it. How should students who have defended their dissertation but not yet had the Ph.D. officially conferred list the degree on their C.V.? Finish that half-done article. Is the same true for an edited volume that is reviewing a submitted article? You watch your c.v., you think about it, you nurture it. How should my CV reflect this? I was awarded a fellowship for the project as well. the first 3 years of my PhD was funded by a government fellowship that I got through a contest (I put it in fellowship). I’m shouting. I have extensive industrial experience , but research experience is limited to only that period of being a graduate student. thanks! He is 70+. BTW, my team and I we have a supply of MFA/Arts focused models and instructions for all docs, for when we work individually with clients in the Arts. I’m the one who gives that advice! Same for a semester spent at another school? Deviations tell the opposite story. Does it make you more memorable or is it amateurish? Is there any way that it would be acceptable for me to include a short description or at least a short list of authors? Current Professor (2012-), Dept. thanks! A CV and resume are similar in that they’re both documents that summarize your professional history, education, skills and achievements. I am applying to cc’s as well (thank you for opening my eyes to the necessity of doing so); where would a professional development section go on a CV for a community college. . Do these go under “Other Publications?” It seems more important than a website, since it’s in a journal, but it’s not referred and not an entire ‘edited volume.’ Thanks! I also want to avoid padding my cv. I feel there is not much I can put on a CV so I’m not quite sure what to do. The situation is slightly better in the US, but still grim, as I knew from having had to fight to keep our own German department from being closed during my Ph.D. All the CVs that I have seen of professors and ABDs in the field (History, Area Studies) have the year span on the right, and they don’t write the year on the left. there is NO danger that your “heading” will accidentally end up in the middle of the page? What sort of explanation should be given? If not, take action that very day to change it. Search Results for: "cv example " Post navigation. Your section on scholarship should be titled Scholarship/ Creative Achievements. • Meet-and-greet of new university faculty, Aug. 2008-2010, 2012 Hi Karen, They go under a separate heading, toward the end, called “Other Related Work Experience” or something along those lines. You mention here that, on my CV, I need to include the years of my degrees. I’ve also been struggling with how to represent the amount of time spent in the field. Ironically, I do have Otter Work Experience. Ok, so I just looked at the examples in Julie Miller Vick and Jennifer S. Furlong’s “CV Doctor” column on the Chronicle, and they don’t do it either for science CVs or non-science ones. hahaha!!! Is there a way to show that you have supervised undergraduate or graduate students without listing the specific students? I don’t know how to take my professional experience and place it into the CV.

Should I include “(On sabbatical)” after this person’s job title? Thoughts? Pretty please? And if a press release was sent out – and multiple online news sites have reposted, should that be listed on my CV (it’s the same press release)? There is variability here, but my advice is that a book goes under a heading labeled: “Books.” Even if it’s just under advance contract, you write, in paren., “(In progress; Under advance contract with U of X Press)” I realize this contradicts the clear subheading division between “in progress” and “published” that I maintained for articles and chapters, but that is because books are “monumental” and get a standalone category that includes those in progress as well as those published. Thanks! Your thoughts? I have a question… Where do I place inerviews for academic audio journals? I am polishing my CV for PhD applications (in the field of Education) and I wondered if you had specific advice for CVs at this early stage of my career.
