Other sections?
‘Community (or) Volunteer Experience’ – is an OK section, but usually is better placed in clinical exp.
‘Hobbies’ or ‘Interests’ – this is a style thing. I personally am not a fan of it…
‘Objective’ or ‘Mission’ – this is not typically on a CV and is more of a resume thing … best left out
‘Professional Training’ – this section comes after Education. It is okay to include but keep to a
minimum (no CPR training).
Other sections?
‘Additional Professional Experience’ - a good section to have (after research and before the prof.
affill.), but only used when you have changed careers (e.g., previous management, law exp.)
‘Additional Relevant Experience’ – A good section if you speak a second language or if you want to
point out related experience (e.g., with children: tutoring, summer camp counselor, baby sitting)
