12 Resumes for Health and Medical Careers

Activities

Perhaps you have been active in different organizations or clubs; often an
employer will look at such involvement as evidence of initiative, dedica-
tion, and good social skills. Examples of your ability to take a leading role
in a group should be included on a resume, if you can provide them. The
activities section of your resume should present neighborhood and com-
munity activities, volunteer positions, and so forth. In general, you may
want to avoid listing any organization whose name indicates the race,
creed, sex, age, marital status, sexual orientation, or nation of origin of its
members because this could expose you to discrimination. Use the fol-
lowing worksheet to list the specifics of your activities.
