CV Writing Style & Substance

When preparing your CV remember that this is a document that summarizes your accomplishments directly related to your academic and professional experiences.

Ask yourself the following questions when putting together your CV.
  • Will this information help me accomplish my goal; is it relevant?
    (i.e. Will it help me get a residency, internship, interview, etc?)
  • What accomplishments, qualities, strengths do I want to emphasize and why?
  • Am I being clear & concise? (you want to make sure that the reader understands what you've accomplished)
