What work experience should I put on resume?
Hi, I have a question regarding what I should list as work experience on my resume.
I have 2 finance related positions: a corp fin position at a F500 company and a strategy position at a charity. I have both of these positions on my resume, but I am not quite sure if I should put my other experiences which are not really related. They are volunteering at a museum where I basically educated people about exhibits (logged in around 350+ hours) and working at a small telecommunications/construction firm where I worked in the warehouse updating the equipment database and organizing job orders (a lot of manual labour).
I have had a lot of trouble adding a finance spin for both of the positions and I was wondering if anyone could give me any input on what would be better to go on my resume? Any feedback would be great. Thanks
The museum can be an example of public speaking and explaining ideas / concepts to groups. You can say that the database work involved a lot of data manipulation and attention to detail.
Out of interest, how was a firm involved in both construction and telecoms? Unless it was putting up telephone masts...
Thanks for the response never really thought of those ideas. The firm focused on electrical/communication cabling and data center relocation/logistics/construction. They had foremen and a construction department as well, but I did not get more exposure to that group. Anyways thanks again
Personally I would only include them if I do not have any on-campus leadership positions. Dont sweat it too much though. My "minor" experience was not brought up in my interviews because of the fact that I did an IB gig in soph summer. Feel free to either toss them or keep 'em but do not spend over two bullet points on each if you do keep them.
