An academic resume aims to outline someone's education, experience and career. A scholar's resume is usually called a "resume book". Considering the purpose of this article, for the sake of brevity, the author will only refer to it as "resume" in the following. This paper aims to provide a clear guide for scholars to write ordinary resumes, and describes the contents and most common forms of scholars' resumes. Although there are many ready-made and recognized formats, this paper discusses the special requirements of scholars' resumes, which is a summary of my experience in helping American teachers and graduate students write resumes in the past 20 years and a scheme summarized after reading hundreds of resumes.

The longer your academic experience, the more content you must include in your resume, and it is often impossible to include all the content properly in a resume. In this case, you must carefully choose the most important, usually recent information to write on your resume. On the contrary, if your academic career has just begun, don't worry about the short resume. You can write truthfully. After working hard in both scientific research and teaching for a period of time, you will also accumulate more and more experience that can be included in your resume. Why do you need to write a resume? In the United States and other countries, resumes are the standard way to explain the background of scholars in a concise format. Resumes are used in the following situations:

1, apply for teaching or scientific research positions.

2. Apply for postdoctoral teaching or research scholarships.

3. apply for a doctorate.

Attach your resume to a publisher who is not familiar with your research work, providing him with your background.
