[QUOTE="Jessica Booker, post: 183496, member: 2672"] 1) part-time jobs will be work experience rather than extra curriculars. You can highlight the number of hours you worked to show you weren’t able to take on extra curriculars as much though. 2) this potentially sounds more like a hobby. You can include it, but I would try to include other activities, even if they were from you time at school/college to show your willingness to engage with activities outside of academics 3) the achievement can be a work experience example. For positions of responsibility, if this is work related it needs to be what you have done beyond your contracted job. For instance, you could be involved in fundraising at work or be part of an employee network group, or mentoring programme. But your general day to day responsibilities will not be considered a position of responsibility. [/QUOTE]
