Does anyone have any suggestions for the best way to approach the development of a marketable Vita? I have heard that it's best to begin the process before or at least during your doctoral studies. Do you include only published research papers, or do you also include unpublished papers? Do you, or anyone you know, engage in research activities or publications solely for the purpose of improving the stature of your Vita? Thanks, Mike
Papers that are presented at a conference should be placed on a vita, as well as papers that are published.
Sorry for the formatting, but here are the hadings in mine: Education: Teaching / Academic Experience: (include UG, G, and specialty) Professional / Industry Experience: (Brief) Publications in Refereed Journals: Published Research Articles & In Progress Research Articles Books and Text: Other Publications: (Editorial, Magazines, etc.) Academic Conference Presentations: Planned Conference Attendance Conferences / Additional Participation: (Attendance, but no paper/presentation) University Related Committees: (note if University, College, or Department) Current Committees Past Committees Certifications: Awards: Professional Memberships: Grants and Fellowships Awarded: Submitted: Other Professional Activities: (reviewer roles, boards, scholarship judging, etc.)
I only include unpublished papers, once they are 1) in final form or 2) submitted awaiting response from a PRJ.
