1.

Leading a project or task in school

This can be any level of school. Choose whatever you completed most recently. If
you’re a college graduate, pick a project from the last one or two years of college.
Taking a lead role in a school project is a great example of leadership experience. If you
delegated tasks, chose the overall strategy for the project, or anything like that, that’s
leadership!
Organizing a team presentation can also be considered leadership.
2. Organizing a study group
Maybe you didn’t lead projects in school, but you organized a study group after class.
That’s still a great example of leadership and taking initiative.
3. Spotting a problem at work and finding a solution
Maybe you spotted a potential problem in your most recent job and brought it to your
boss’ attention, or better yet – fixed it yourself.
This is a great leadership example.
Any time you go above and beyond what your basic job requires and solve a problem
or take the lead on something without being asked is great leadership.
4. Sports leadership experience
If you’ve played a lead role on any sports teams, this can certainly be used as a
leadership example in job interviews.
So think back to your past, and whether you led any sports teams.
5. Volunteer/non-profit leadership
If you’ve volunteered at a local foundation or non-profit and took a leadership role –
even in one task or for one day – you can mention this as leadership experience.
Some of the best leadership experience examples can be for one single day or one
single moment; it doesn’t need to be something you did for years.
6. Training/mentoring newer team members
You don’t need to have a Manager or Supervisor job title to play a lead role in a past job.
If you were ever asked to help get a new team member up to speed, train them on the
basics, or watch over them on their first few weeks, that’s a great example of leadership
experience.
7. Managing clients/projects
Maybe you’ve never had people reporting directly to you, but you’ve managed projects
or managed client accounts for your last company.
You can certainly mention that as one of your leadership examples in the interview.
8. Direct reports
If you’ve ever had direct reports, this is the most powerful example you can give. If you
hired people, did annual reviews, and had them reporting to you on a regular basis, this
shows your employer trusted you at a very high level.
While most people aren’t going to be able to give this as an example, if you can, you
should!
9. Leading a meeting or committee
This can be at school, at an after-school organization, any type of volunteer
organization, a job, a club, etc.
If you led a meeting or committee for even a short time period or one-time event, that’s
still great leadership experience to put on a resume and then talk about in interviews if
asked.
10. Passion projects
Even if you took the lead on a project that wasn’t work-related and wasn’t for a non-
profit, you can still share it as a leadership example.
Maybe you got three friends together to build an electric go-cart. This still shows the
ability to manage and organize a highly-technical, time-consuming project. That’s a
valuable trait for many jobs!
1. Choose a speci c failure
Pick a real failure that happened in the workplace,
speci cally a failure related to the work you’re doing
now. Look for a story where something didn’t go as
planned. Choosing the right story is important, as you
want to explain a situation where only one thing went
wrong. This will help keep the story brief and make it
easy to articulate what you learned and what you can
do di erently next time. A team failure can also be a
great choice to share with your interviewer because
you share responsibility with others. It’s just important
to take responsibility for your role in why it was a
failure.

2. Share your story

Share with the interviewer the story you chose. Keep
in mind that the purpose of asking this question is to
evaluate how you handle setbacks, so try to rapidly
move to the part of the story where you talk about
how you managed the failure. You may want to
discuss what made the situation challenging and what
you did to try to rectify it. Be open about the fact that
the situation did not go as planned.

3. Focus on what you learned

Talk about what you believe went wrong and caused
the failure, what you would have done di erently and
what changes you made moving forward. For
example, let’s say your failure was the result of
assuming what your customers wanted. Your
takeaway from the experience could be that you will
never make an assumption again, and in the future,
you will perform more market research and survey
your customer base—even testing the product with a
small sample of people before fully investing in a new
product or service.

Anatomy of a CV
While there is no single correct format or style for writing a
CV, the following sections are generally included. The
organization of your CV should present the information in
reverse chronological order that best highlights your strengths
in relation to the position you are seeking.
Name & Contact Information – Your name, address, telephone,
and email should always come first as part of the “header” of a
CV. List one email address only. You can include a url to your
website in this section.
Education – Write the full name of your school and its location,
full name or abbreviation of your degree(s), major or field of
study, and expected date or date of completion. If you have
credentials from institutions outside of the US, use the exact
name of the degree as provided by the granting institution. If
necessary, you may add a phrase to clarify the training
attained, for example “equivalent to US MD”.
Dissertation – In addition to your academic pedigree, the
nature of your dissertation and the reputation of your advisors
are usually the most important feature of your CV. List the
title, members of your committee, and the date it will be
completed. Provide a brief description of your work, its
framework, and your conclusions.
Research Experience – This section showcases your
development as a scholar. List the name of the organization
followed by your department and principal investigator’s
name. Include your position and your project title.
Teaching Experience – Describe your teaching in detail. Take
time to convey the depth and breadth of your experience,
especially if it included the opportunity to develop your own
syllabi and lecturing ability. If you have a lot of teaching
experience, think about breaking it out by level of
responsibility. List the formal course title, but not course
numbers. Add a descriptive line if the title does not convey all
of the relevant information.
Grants – Use this category only if you have received significant
funding. Dissertation and fellowship support are usually listed
in "Honors and Awards." List the funding agency and the
projects that were funded. The work supported by the grant
can be discussed in detail under "Research Experience."
Scholarly Membership/Leadership – List memberships in
societies in your discipline. If you have been very active in
university committee work or your scholarly community, you
might include that information here, or create a separate
section. Moderating a panel would be a good example of
something that might fit under this heading.
Publications/Presentations – Publications and presentations
demonstrate engagement in your field. List publications and
presentations in reverse chronological order in standard
bibliographic form. If you have a long list, have separate
sections for publications and for presentations, and then
subdivide by topics (peer reviewed papers, reviews or posters,
invited talks). You can list a few articles that are in
preparation.
Honors and Awards – This section can be combined with
“Education” or given a separate section, depending on how
significant or numerous they are. If you have received several
prestigious and highly competitive awards, you might want to
highlight them with a separate section. Commonly known
honors
need no explanation, but others can be briefly explained.
Emphasize the degree to which an unfamiliar award was
competitive (e.g. "1 of 3 selected from among 2,000
graduating chemists nationally.")
Additional Activities – Volunteer work with organizations,
student groups, alumni associations, or civic or political
groups can be of interest. If you have experience (either paid
or volunteer) that is relevant to your work as an academic, list
it here. For example, include in this section if your field is
education and you served on the board of a charter school, or
if you are in Asian Studies and worked as an associate director
of the Japan Society of Southern California. Do not disclose
political or religious activities/affiliations.
References – Having strong letters of recommendation from
faculty who know your work well is crucial to a successful job
search. It is common courtesy to ask your advisor and
committee members if they will serve as references for you
and to give them plenty of time to write letters. To list
references on your CV include for each one their name, title,
department, institution, mailing address, phone number and
e-mail address.
