How to write a good CV

1. Generally, the contents in the resume are very flexible. For example, students applying for Ph.D. should focus on their research experience in the laboratory, or Fir students applying for software engineering. Although they didn't have the opportunity to enter the laboratory at school, they worked as interns at intel and had their own open source projects at github. This experience is the crowning touch.

1. Education

· College and university degrees

· omprehensive areas

· Did You Know?

CVs vary widely by discipline, from headings to the details included. Check your department to find out what is customary within your field.

Tip

For discipline-specific examples of CVs, Check the websites of facility in your department or the same department at other universities. Many will have their cv online.

Course highlights (never! If yes, we don't need to write too much, because we have already submitted the report card.)

2. Thesis

O Doctor Dissertation

O Master's Thesis

O Bachelor's Thesis

3. Honors and Awards

If the list is too long, You can write the best Top5 in "Selected Honors and Awards".

Academic Awards

Distinctions

Fellowships

Grants

Honors and Awards

4. Research Experi. Ence

should be in flashback form, and the indispensable contents are: your title, department, university, city, state and dates (years only).

When describing activities, We need to use specific action verbs. Of course, if we are describing your dissertation, we also need to include a brief overview of impact. Other research projects, It is necessary to focus on your own compliance documents.

5. Publications

It is necessary to use GB7714 standard in domestic publications (GB stands for "national standard", which used to be GB7714-87, which was a mandatory standard in 1987; What is automatically generated in Google is according to GB/T 7714-25, which is the recommended standard in 25, and T stands for "push"); However, foreign magazines have specific requirements, generally according to MLA(Modern Language Association), APA (American Psychological Association) and other specifications.

GB/T 7714Tang C K, Medioni G. Curvature-augmented tensor voting for shape inference from noisy 3d data[J]. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on, 22, 24(6): 858-864.

MLATang, Chi-Keung, and Gérard Medioni. "Curvature-augmented tensor voting for shape inference from noisy 3d data." Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, IEEE Transactions on 24.6 (22): 858-864.

APATang, C. K., & Medioni, G. (22). Curvature-augmented tensor voting for shape inference from noisy 3d data. Pattern Analysis and Machine Intelligence, Ieee transactions on, 24 (6), 858-864.

In addition, be sure to indicate which author it is (Author or Co-Author.) and indicate whether this article was written in Chinese or English. My student John has published four papers, but one of them was written in Chinese about MRI, but he didn't indicate it in his resume when he applied. As a result, a professor doing MRI was very optimistic about him and invited him for an interview. During the interview, he asked many professional questions about MRI. Because John was unfamiliar with English terms, the interview process was not smooth. Finally, the professor began to doubt the authenticity of John's research! !

Of course, we also accept articles that have not been retrieved and write them as "as submitted" or "in preparation". But only if you have published other articles.

6. Patents

patents are the strength of engineering students. Especially now, it is easier to apply for new utility patents in universities, so many students use this to highlight their own specialties. As required by publication, China's patents can also be searched on google scholar. It is a good way to add a hyperlink to CV.

7. General experience

· Administrative experience

· Consulting experience

· Professional experience

· Related experience

8. International Experience

foreign study

travel abroad

9. Professional affiliations

Professional affiliations

Other affiliations

Second, A Note on Competencies

This part needs to be written according to your actual situation. The contents that can be written include:

languages

areas of expertise

committee leadership

departmental leadership

facility leadership

professional activities.

professional competencies

research interests

teaching interests

students who are interested may notice that there is no place to write TOEFL and GRE/GMAT scores in this classification. Standardized Test is a required content in our online application. Unless the score is particularly outstanding, there is no need to waste space to rewrite it again.

organize these according to your strengths

Ben has a strong research background. At the age of 2, he has published four papers. However, because he was immersed in the laboratory all day, his academic performance was not outstanding, so he won few awards, only one in his freshman year, so we focused on publication in front of CV, and added it to the sub-item of education without the section of "Honors and Awards".

finally, I want to clear up a few misunderstandings here.

1. Is internship experience that important? Science and engineering students don't require a lot of internship experience like business students. Many business schools require students to take more than 3 months and 14 credits for internship. Usually, science and engineering only need 2-4 credits for 2 weeks of summer production practice. Our undergraduate course design is reasonable. Because science and engineering students need to spend more energy on the research of science and technology. Usually, science and engineering need to take 16 credits to graduate, while literature and business generally need 14 credits. Many science and engineering students have no internship experience, which is not your disadvantage, but normal. Many science and engineering students have questions here again. Of course, it is good if you have internship experience in related fields. IBM's annual blue plan and intel's internship are all good platforms. )

2. Is it a good thing to experience a lot of extracurricular activities? When many students first met me, they told me cheerfully how many clubs, activities and competitions he had participated in. But when I asked him about his activities in his professional field, he became speechless. Of course, after doing so many extracurricular activities, there is naturally no time to do activities in the professional field. Not only do I think so, but if such a CV is applied, admission faculty will think so.

3. If there is no research experience, internship and unsatisfactory academic performance in this major, is there nothing to say in CV? Answer: Of course not! This situation requires us to analyze the specific problems.
