Hello , I was just wondering what section would insight days be under in my cv?. Currently the sections in my CV include:

Education
Professional Experience
Legal Experience
Additional Experience
Activities & Interests

    Hey!

    How do you divide up your experiences between professional, legal and additional - will be easier to comment on where insight/open days fit if I understand your existing system better! Personally, my CV just has a generic Work Experience section and I used to list all the open days I'd been to under a sub-heading Open Days/Insight Evenings.

    Some people have a separate section for events and insight programmes, especially if it helps to tidy up the order of their work experience. Such sections often have their own heading such as “Insight and careers events” or “Conferences and Career Events” depending on what they have included in there.

    I’d probably put it under legal then since it is related! :)
