Q: Is it best to write personal interests on your resume?

A: Hobbies have always been a controversial project. In the resume of studying abroad, hobbies can also be an aspect of self-expression. As we all know, foreign universities attach great importance to students' comprehensive quality. If you highlight your academic performance, plus some personal hobbies, such as enjoying sports and participating in volunteer activities, you will get extra points for your successful application for studying abroad. This is especially important for students applying for undergraduate courses in the United States.

In short, it's up to you whether to state your personal interests in your resume ~ this is not a mandatory part. If the organization or unit you want to interview has this requirement, then you can take this opportunity to show your charm (such as swimming gold medal, school-level team striker and other sports achievements can be used as a side proof to show your physical fitness and teamwork ability)

Q: How long should a resume be?

A: The ideal length of all resumes is a piece of A4 paper. Some people print on both sides for this reason. If it exceeds 1 A4 paper, your resume may be considered not concise enough to highlight the key points and weaken the competitiveness.

Q: Should I write or print my resume?

A: The dispute between the two is fierce. It is recommended to print, because computers and printers are very common abroad. Usually, students finish their daily homework or materials that need to be prepared in class on their own computers, and then print them out. Therefore, when preparing your resume for studying abroad, don't think that handwriting can attract the attention of foreign university admissions officers to a certain extent. On the contrary, the printed version is more common, more regular and easier to browse.

However, if your handwriting is like a ghost symbol, then a word of advice is to knock on the keyboard.

Q: By mail or email?

A: Whether to mail or send an email depends on the requirements of foreign universities. There are clear requirements in the enrollment pages of foreign universities. If it is mailed, there will be a detailed mailing address. Many universities abroad have developed their own online application systems, so you can also be asked to upload your resume to the system. At this time, you should ensure the running speed of the computer you use and the good connection of the network, otherwise the network will probably be interrupted in the middle of uploading, so that you don't know whether the upload has been successful or not.
