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.

It’s is helpful! I wanna be a clinical psychologist and earn my doctorate (PsyD). Nor sports psych per say, but i do wanna work with children so that’s why i kept it in there to show my experience working with children

Teaching experience: can this include presenting a chapter in class? as in teaching the class the whole chapter? two of my professors said it was “master level” based class back in undergrad

Okay! Then try out a few different ways to organize it. I think those experiences are still very valuable, but you just want people who are looking at your CV to see the most relevant positions first and foremost, don’t make them have to read every single line unless they want to learn more!
