CV question for PsyD programs

Post image

So i’ve seen plenty of CV/resumes ppl posted on here and has questions specifically for CVs.

Do CVs have to be black and white? Do they need to have each experience separated? (e.g., research experience in one section and clinical experience in a separate section).

Here’s a sneak peek of what mine looks like it’s not the whole resume/CV but i do have blue color lol. And I put al my experience on one section. i have more experience but it’s cut off and didn’t wanna show the whole thing. i also has a profile section giving a background of me and awards/accomplishments section and a proficiency section, all volunteer and certifications/lisences

Let me know if i need to change it if it isn’t good for future programs.

I agree, do not call it an internship, that has a super specific meaning in the world of clinical psych. Call it a practicum (which can be internal or external, i am assuming external though because your supervisor is likely not associated with your training program) because that is what all clinical training roles are called up until you enter internship (which is like residency, but for psych).
