When I started working on my CV for university applications, I felt totally lost. I mean, how do you sum up your entire life in one page? That's why I decided to break it down into sections that actually highlighted my strengths.
I included a section for education, where I listed my GPA and relevant courses, and another for extracurricular activities, focusing on leadership roles.
One tip that helped was quantifying my experiences. Instead of saying I volunteered, I wrote, ‘Led a team of 10 volunteers at a local shelter.’ This made my application stand out!
Finally, I formatted it neatly with bullet points and simple fonts. Keeping it organized made a huge difference. Hope this helps anyone struggling with their CV!
