Employment History section [#permalink] New post 10 Dec 2006, 19:25
Hi,
This might be obvious to you guys, but I'm not so sure, so I'm hoping you can help me out.

I've put NYU's Employment History section instructions below. I know I should include post-college full-time positions, but my question is, do I also include

A) crummy summer jobs (like painting houses and waiting tables)
B) summer internships (unpaid)


Quote:
Provide your Employment History separately from your résumé. The Employment History should follow the format below and should list all positions you have held, including employer, starting and ending dates, promotions, salary/bonus and reason for leaving. Any gaps in employment should be noted in Essay 4.


Thanks!

I would leave out A and include B...

unless you have a certain theme in your application that A would be a part of.

I included all most of my co-op/internships during school... what a pain in the @ss to fill out.

I would include any real work exp, worst that would happen is that they ignore it

I got in Langone Program, but their work experience section is the same as the full time section.
I would NOT include anything that it's not material or does not relate to your current position and/or short/long term goals. I think in this case quality of work experience counts more than the length of work experience.
