[QUOTE="Andrei Radu, post: 190412, member: 36777"] I think it is a good idea to list more experiences under one heading when there is a natural way you can organize them under a label. What you mentioned are good examples of that, so you can definitely put down broader headings such as 'university society roles' or 'volunteering roles' or 'law firm events'. A bad example would be something like 'Internships' when you have done internships in very different roles and in different industries. This is because there would not be enough commonality between the experiences to justify bundling them together and this might be interpreted by recruiters as just an attempt to sidestep their listing limit. As for your second question about the Forage experience, I think given the space constraints, if you cannot find a way to bundle it with other work experiences it may indeed be preferrable to prioritize more substantive jobs. However, I would still try to mention it, even if very briefly, in one of your answer to application form questions or in the cover letter. [/QUOTE]
