- Personal projects, if any (NOT CLASS PROJECTS)
When I was going through resume workshops at the end of college, they recommended putting class projects, so long as they're actually worth a damn. CS 101 fish tank in java? No. Senior design project for a nonprofit? Yes.
Of course, my resume format for those was:
+Info
+Education
+Experience
+Skills | Projects
+Misc
So with that, I didn't actually list out what I did in each class, like some people seem to do.
- leeny 14y agoThe problem is that most of the projects that people list are not worth a damn, so at this point, my strategy is to ignore unless you specifically draw attention to a project and prove that it's something that required some amount of initiative/originality. Senior design project for a nonprofit, assuming it's something you had ownership over, definitely sounds like it's worth listing, but projects like this, unfortunately, are in the minority.
