Education

 

The Education section: simple and straightforward

 

The Education section should be relatively succinct, as it is just a matter of indicating the degrees completed or in the process of being completed. It could be advantageous to include certain details, however, especially for young graduates.

 

You need to present your education starting with the most recent diploma and ending with the oldest one. For each, indicate the exact title of the degree, as well as where and when it was received.

 

More details for young graduates

 

It could be interesting to include prizes or awards of distinction received during your education. It could also be pertinent to indicate the subject of your thesis at the end of your studies, depending on the position targeted. If it is not relevant, it is best not to include it.  

 

Do not make up diplomas

 

Attention! Some people are sometimes tempted to invent diplomas, probably because they feel inadequate about not having one. You would be wrong to do such a thing, because your lie would soon be discovered. You may actually be asked to present your diplomas.
