CVs
Your CV is always the first thing you will be asked to send to a hiring institution. Faculty positions always require a multi-page summary of your academic accomplishments, not a one-page business resume. In preparing it, your goal is to create enough interest in your candidacy that you will be granted an interview. Design your CV so that your strongest qualifications stand out if a search committee member skims it for only a few seconds, and with enough supporting detail that it will stand up to scrutiny during a thorough reading.
Getting Started
Before beginning to write your CV, review your educational and professional history. Using the categories suggested below, list everything you imagine could possibly be included. Eventually you will decide what to include or exclude, but begin by ensuring that you are not overlooking anything relevant. Write a draft, experiment with the format, look at sample CVs, eliminate irrelevant information, have the CV critiqued, and do a final review of your document before you send it to any institution. Your CV will continue to evolve both as you target different types of institutions and as you move forward in your career and add credentials.
Content
A CV always includes your name and contact information and information about your education, academic experience, publications, presentations, and honors. It may also include professional, extracurricular, and community activities; professional memberships; foreign languages; research interests; teaching competencies; grants; names and contact information for references; and selected personal data. Your name and information about how to contact you should appear at the top of the first page. If you are completing a Ph.D., the first section will be “Education.” If you are applying from a postdoc or current faculty position, you may put your current experience first, followed by your education. Next, include categories in decreasing order of importance. If you’ve applied for an NIH grant or other grants, your job market CV may look different from the grant CV. And, in contrast to a resume for a nonacademic position, a CV for a faculty or postdoctoral position typically does not include an “Objective,” “Summary,” or statement of the type of position you want. Within each category, give information in reverse chronological order, from most recent backward. Be concise; use phrases rather than complete sentences.
Name
On the first page, list your full name at the top, separate from other information. Consider putting your name in a slightly larger font. After the first page, list your last name and a page number at the top or bottom of every page. If your name has recently changed and you have scholarly accomplishments in your older name, the clearest way to acknowledge this is to include your previous name on the CV: for example, Jane E. (Doe) Smith. Similarly, international scholars who are commonly known by a name other than their given name should include both names, e.g., Xaofu (Charles) Wang. Also, some people want to make their gender clear when their given name is undifferentiated and may add Mr. or Ms. to their name.
Contact Information
You may include home and/or office addresses, one email address, one phone number, and a URL, if you have a professional website. If you are graduating find out if you’ll have access to your institutional email. If you’ll lose that email address check into getting an alumni email account. Choose one email and one phone number which you check regularly to give to search committees.
Education
List each institution, degree, field of concentration, and date at which a degree was received. Search committees want to know when your dissertation will be finished, so indicate the anticipated date of completion. If you are just beginning your dissertation and are preparing a CV for a fellowship or part-time position, you may want to include a date for the latest formal stage of graduate work you have completed (“Coursework completed, May 2014”; “Passed examinations with distinction, December 2014”; or whatever formal marker of progress your program may have). If you are a postdoctoral fellow, you will include your postdoctoral experience in its own section or in a research section.
Include the title of your dissertation and the name of your advisor. You may include the names of committee members if you think their inclusion will be helpful to you. You may also list additional research projects or additional areas of concentration. You may include activities related to your graduate training, for example, “President, Graduate Chemistry Society.” If you have been very active in graduate student government, you may wish to create a separate section entitled “Committees” or “University Service,” which would appear after listings of more relevant academic detail. You may include relevant undergraduate academic accomplishments but do not go into detail about them. GPA is not normally included at the doctoral level. For U.S. job searches it is the norm to omit high school. On the rare occasion where it may be advantageous to call attention to your secondary education, it can be included in an additional information section at the end of your CV.
Honors
Sometimes people include honors and fellowships as a separate section on their CV; sometimes they list them under “Education” with the corresponding degree. Whether you have a separate section depends on how important honors are in your qualifications and, perhaps, how many you have earned. If you have received several prestigious and highly competitive awards, for example, you may highlight them in a separate section. On the other hand, if you have few honors, you probably do not want to call attention to that fact by creating a category with only one entry. You can include dissertation support, fellowships, and other awards that support individual research and teaching. If you received an award but had to decline it, you may list it here, with a note “declined.”
If you are applying for jobs in the United States, commonly known academic honors such as Phi Beta Kappa need no explanation. International scholars applying in the U.S. may want to stress the degree to which an unfamiliar award was competitive (for example, “one of three selected from among 2,000 graduating chemists nationally”). Likewise, those trained at American institutions who are applying to institutions abroad should briefly explain the honors they have earned. For example, Phi Beta Kappa may sound like a social fraternity to academics outside the U.S. who are unfamiliar with the idea of fraternities as intellectual organizations.
Experience
In this section, include all the experience that you now view as relevant to your professional objectives. For each position you have held, include the name of the institution with which you were associated, your responsibilities and accomplishments, dates, and, in most cases, your position title. Pick a format that you plan to use consistently. List positions or employers first in each entry depending on which format, on balance, shows you to best advantage. Sometimes a general heading of “Experience” will be appropriate, but frequently you will want to subdivide the section. A common division is “Teaching Experience” and “Research Experience.” A heading such as “Academic Appointments” may also be appropriate if your experience does not fit neatly into one category or another.
In some fields, and for some types of institutions, it can be useful to give the reader an overview of what you did in each position, detailing the most significant aspects of the work. Emphasize what you accomplished and uniquely contributed in a concise manner. Thus, “Responsibilities included developing various new course materials and instructional aids” becomes “Developed syllabus and diagnostic exam later adopted by the department.”
If you are describing a research project, give a brief introductory statement indicating what you set out to accomplish and what results you obtained. This is not, however, the place for a complete dissertation abstract, though in some fields candidates do include a short description of their dissertation or other research in a separate section (for an example, see the CV “Madison Candidate” in the sample materials included with this chapter).
Professional Experience
If you are applying for a position in a professional school and have experience working in that profession, describe it in some detail. If your professional experience is not related to your current scholarly pursuits, include it toward the end of your CV and condense it drastically.
Licensure/Registration/Certification
List these credentials for positions in professional schools in fields where they are required, for example, nursing, education, architecture.
Publications/Presentations
These are of great importance for an academic position. In the past, convention usually placed them last once they had grown beyond a few entries. Now many people include them earlier in the CV, often on the first page. They are listed in standard bibliographic form for your field. If you have a very long list, they may be subcategorized by topic or by publication format. Publications could be subcategorized as Peer Reviewed Articles, Book Reviews, and Book Chapters. Presentations could be subcategorized as Invited Talks, Conference Papers, and Poster Sessions. Another way to organize your list is to subcategorize by topic as a means to call attention to areas of expertise which may not be readily apparent. While it is acceptable to list articles as “submitted,” or “in preparation,” too many citations of this form not balanced by articles that are either published or in press may draw attention to the fact you do not have a strong publication record, and look like you are “padding” your accomplishments.
Be aware of prestige hierarchies, and don’t dilute the credibility of presentations at established scholarly societies or articles in refereed journals by including term papers or publications in popular journals or newspapers. Separate refereed articles from everything else. Dissertations are not usually considered publications unless they are subsequently published in a journal or as a book by a recognized publisher. Don’t pad your publications list, and don’t include in it anything you would not want a hiring committee to read.
For those with only a handful of each, publications and presentations may be listed as one section. At some point it will become clear to you that the section should be separated into “Publications” and “Presentations.”
Digital Projects
For those in humanities, arts, and social sciences who work heavily with digital content, it may be helpful to have a separate section for such projects, particularly when job announcements in that discipline state an interest in the candidate’s experience in that area. Possible headings are “Selected Digital Projects” or “Digital Projects and Publications.” An entry would give the title (hyperlinked to the site) of the project, the names of other collaborators, the year(s) you have been working on it, and a brief description of the project that indicates its import.
Grants
If you have received funding, list the funding agency and the project(s) for which it was awarded. Usually you would list fellowship or dissertation support with “Honors.” Occasionally a grant will appear in two sections of the CV. It may be listed briefly in this section and the work it supported discussed in detail under “Experience.” Candidates frequently list dollar amounts for major funded research projects, because doing so can show a history of increasing amounts.
Media Coverage
If you have been interviewed by a reporter or participated in live programming, list the kind of interview or programming it was, the name of the media outlet, the title or topic, and the date of its appearance. For example:
Radio interview on WHYY (NPR affiliate) “Radio Times” entitled “__________,” date
Scholarly and Professional Memberships/Service
List memberships or committee work in scholarly or professional organizations. If you have been very active in university committee work, you might also include it here, or perhaps create a separate section to cover it. If you have organized or moderated conference sessions, this would be an appropriate place to say so.
Research Interests
This optional category gives a brief answer to the question: “What are your future research plans?” Interests listed here should be described at a level specific enough to be credible and general enough to indicate the direction your research might take over the next several years. As a separate part of your application you may be asked to submit a Research Statement, a brief (one or two page) discussion of your future research plans (see Chapter 10, “Additional Application Materials”).
Teaching Competencies
You may use this optional category if you feel that the areas you are qualified to teach are not entirely obvious from the rest of the entries in your CV. Its listings are more general than “Research Interests.” Be careful not to list such a wide range of competencies that your list lacks credibility. If you list a subject as a teaching competency, some other part of the CV should reinforce your qualifications to teach it. Be prepared to discuss your ideas about a syllabus/text for any course you list in this section.
Skills
Whether you have a skills section depends on your field, your research, and the nature of the position or institution to which you are applying. A skills section would indicate high levels of competency in discipline specific technical skills. Examples of candidates who might include such a section are those working in the digital humanities, those in the STEM fields, those in highly quantitative social sciences, and those who are highly conversant with instructional technologies.
Additional Information
Sometimes called “Related Information,” this optional section may encompass miscellaneous information that does not fit elsewhere. You may include knowledge of foreign languages (if they are not very important to your research; if they are, give them their own section), extensive travel, and interests that you feel are important. If you worked prior to attending graduate school at jobs you now consider irrelevant, you may summarize them with a statement such as “Employment 2009–2011 included office and restaurant work.” If you are applying for jobs in the United States you should not include date of birth, a statement about your health, or marital status. However, in some countries the convention is to include such personal information.
If anything in your CV may make a search committee question whether you have U.S. work permission (for example, an undergraduate degree from another country), list U.S. citizenship or permanent residency if you have it. If you do not, either make the most positive statement you can about work eligibility, for example, “Visa status allows 18 months United States work permission,” or omit any mention of citizenship.
References
List the names of the people who write letters of recommendation for you; provide their titles and institutions, telephone numbers, and e-mail addresses. An individual entry could look like this:
Dr. John Doe, Associate Professor, Department of ABC, University of X, 999-888-7654, doej@uofx.edu
or like this:
Anne L. Smith, PhD
Named Professor of XYZ

Organizing and Tailoring Your CV to Its Audience
Your CV should always include basic information, and the information you present should always be true. However, if you are applying for two distinct types of positions, or positions in different types of institutions or departments, you may wish to develop more than one version of your CV. Variations could include choosing headings to emphasize information of particular relevance to a situation (for example, including “Administrative Experience” for positions that involve both teaching and administrative components); giving details about additional areas of concentration more relevant to one field than another; and using different subsets of individuals to recommend you for different types of positions. Differences between versions of your CV are usually subtle, but can be effective nonetheless. Consider different versions if you are in an interdisciplinary field and will apply to more than one type of department.
If you plan to apply for non-faculty positions that are not research based, you will need an entirely different version of your CV, which will be called a “resume.” In Chapter 23, “Exploring the Expanded Job Market,” we have included some examples of resumes prepared by Ph.D.s pursuing non-faculty positions. For more discussion and examples, see the excellent, “So What Are You Going to Do with That?”: Finding Careers Outside Academia, by Susan Basalla and Maggie Debelius. For scientists, Put Your Science to Work: The Take-Charge Guide for Scientists, by Peter S. Fiske, is a good additional source. The Chronicle of Higher Education, www.chronicle.com, Inside Higher Ed, www.insidehighered.com, and Science Careers, www.sciencecareers.org, all have excellent content about nonacademic careers. Helpful online content continues to grow. Versatile PhD, www.versatilephd.com, has panel discussions about a wide variety of non-faculty careers and sample application materials.
Experienced Candidates
If you are several years past your first academic position, your CV will be longer than that of a new Ph.D. Its general appearance and construction, however, will be similar. Normally you will omit details about earlier experience, while retaining mention of the experience itself. For example, your first CV may have given detail about what you did as a teaching assistant. Now you may merely list the position, without discussion of responsibilities. Your education will probably remain on the first page, although the amount of detail you provide about it may diminish and Current Appointment(s) may be the first section.
As entries in some of the categories in your CV are growing numerous, this is the time to introduce subdivisions. For example, publications may be divided among books, papers, and reviews. Your listings of professional associations may begin to include discussions of conference sessions that you moderated or organized.
Layout and Format
How long a CV will be varies from field to field. There is no single formula. In any case, be as concise as possible. Some graduate students will be able to manage with not more than two pages, including publications. Naturally, the CVs of more experienced candidates will be longer.
Remember that you are designing your CV to capture your readers’ attention at a first glance. Therefore pay attention to where you put information and how you format it. Organize the first page so that it contains the information about your most significant accomplishments. That way the reader will be motivated to scroll down the page. Longer entries will call more attention to themselves than will shorter ones. Material near the top of the page will stand out more than that in the middle. The left-hand column usually gets the greatest visual emphasis. Because of this, many candidates put dates on the right-hand margin, and use the left-hand margin for content items, such as names of institutions. Bullets can be useful for organizing descriptive information within entries. However, because this is a formatting technique often used in resumes you should be judicious in your use of bullets.
Take advantage of bold type for emphasis and establish a consistent graphic hierarchy so that typeface for equivalent categories of information is the same. An example of one typical hierarchy appears below.
HEADING (for example, EXPERIENCE)
Important Item (for example, University of Excellence)
Less Important Item (for example, Teaching Assistant)
Use one, or at the most two, conservative fonts. Fonts smaller than 10 point are very difficult to read. Given the availability of bold and italic type for emphasis, there is no need to clutter the page with underlining, which is harder on the eye. Avoid the graphic dizziness caused by introducing too many kinds of font, type size or indentations.
Proofread your CV again and again. Typographical or spelling errors can cause you to be dropped from consideration. To be doubly sure, ask a friend who is a good proofreader to read the draft also. Make sure your name and a page number appear on each page.
With all job descriptions, it is important to submit your materials in the manner requested. Though you are submitting your materials electronically, you should still assume that in some cases they will be printed.
To maintain your formatting, avoid predesigned templates, and use headers and/or footers for name and page numbers. Saving your document as a PDF is the best way to ensure that the format and length stay as you intended. If you’re asked to cut and paste parts of your CV into an online application form, remove all formatting, since you won’t know how the formatting will convert when uploaded to the online application system.
Help
Because a CV is often the first thing a potential employer sees of you, it is too important a document not to be thoroughly critiqued and revised. Show it to your advisor and others in your department. See whether your university career office has counselors who work with graduate students or postdocs and who are able to provide critiques and help you get your first draft together. To give your CV a good final test, show it briefly to someone who has not seen it and ask that person what he or she notices and remembers. If the most important items stand out, you’re in good shape. Otherwise, more revision is in order.
A Note About the Sample CVs That Follow
The following examples, generously volunteered by real candidates, are provided to give you an idea of what such materials look like. Please note that to preserve anonymity:
• The names of job candidates, their advisors, committee members, and coauthors have been changed or removed.
• Addresses, emails, and phone numbers have been modified.
• Some dates have also been changed.
• The name of a candidate’s most recent institution has been changed to something like University of X, University of Y, X University, or some similar name. Other than that we have tried to alter these CVs as little as possible.
Condensing the samples allows for more samples to be included here. In order to save space, some of the lists of presentations, publications, honors and awards, activities, and so on, have been truncated. To be clear, if a section has been shortened there will be a note in brackets e.g., [Two additional presentations follow.]. The length of the original document is provided.
The sample CVs are arranged by broad field: Humanities, Social Sciences, STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics), Arts, and Professional (disciplines where professional practice as well as research and teaching are an intrinsic part). If the applicant has accepted a position, brief information about the type of institution is also provided. A brief note about the candidate’s search situation or a note about the CV is included in some of the samples.
These examples should be regarded as excellent, but not necessarily perfect. They are not all in the same format, and they do not all subscribe to the same stylistic conventions, so you can see there are many ways to construct a good CV. And a caveat is that some may be very discipline-specific. The custom in your own field, or an unusual combination of strengths in your background, might well dictate that your CV should be quite different in style, language, or appearance. Don’t attempt to copy any single example. Rather, look at all of them to see which forms of presentation might suit your own taste or situation.

Dissertation: Communal Song and the Theology of Voice in German Mysticism, 1150-1750. This dissertation argues that speculative mysticism was historically accompanied by the invention of worship practices designed to promote group ecstatic experience. Famous mystical theologians such as Hildegard of Bingen, Meister Eckhart, and Jakob Böhme inspired a transformation of worship practices. Consideration of these communal mystical practices drives a reevaluation of the mystic as solitary contemplative individual, in favor of a subject whose access to the divine is mediated by experience of the other.

DISSERTATION
Latin@s Byte Back: Contestational Performance in the Technosphere. In my dissertation, I explore the art praxis of U.S. based Latin@ artists Coco Fusco, Ricardo Dominguez, Guillermo Gómez-Peña and Los Cybrids: La Raza Techno-Critica. I utilize Gloria Anzaldúa’s mestizaje and borderlands concepts and Deleuze and Guattari’s liminality to provide a feminist reading of these artists’ work, analyzing their projects on race, gender, class, bodies and labor throughout North, Central and South America. I focus on how these artists introduce resistant practices to redress neoliberal capitalist globalization.

DISSERTATION ABSTRACT
Fired Up, Ready to Go: The Effects of Group-Based and Intergroup Emotions in Politics
How and in what ways does group membership shape how we experience emotions? What are the implications of that experience for public opinion and political participation? Existing literature has examined how individuals experience emotions like anger, anxiety, fear, and disgust, and how these individual-level emotions shape a wide range of public opinion and political participation variables. However, much of how we think and behave in the political arena surrounds our membership in groups, whether they are partisan, racial, gender, religious, sexual orientation or otherwise; yet, very little literature in political science has focused on the causes and consequences of emotions from the perspective of group membership. I use a mixture of qualitative and quantitative methods to explore group-based pride, shame, and intergroup anger among African-Americans in politics. I address how eliciting these emotions affects group attitudes, policy opinion, and political participation. I advance the literature by providing a more nuanced understanding of how group-based and intergroup emotions influence public opinion and political participation.
