I have a pretty simple question here regarding the work experience section of Kellogg's application. There is a "Description of Duties" section that has no word or character limit. I am wondering if this space should be filled with a paragraph-type discussion of my duties, or if it should include only brief sentences, such as the same types of things that are provided on my resume. It seems redundant to just copy and paste what is on my resume, but, at the same time, I see merit in keeping the description of duties short and sweet, as the person who is reading it will likely appreciate conciseness. Thoughts?
Thanks!

short and sweet it should be. If they want to dive deep, they can refer to your resume.

My resume already includes pretty "short and sweet" descriptions of my duties. Is it okay to lift those from the resume and put them in the Kellogg application verbatim? Of course my resume also includes more of the quantifiable accomplishments that I would not include in the application, but as far as "duties" on my resume, I kept them to three short bullets.
Bottom line is: is it okay to lift the bullets from my resume and place them right into the application?
