Although you may have not completed any work or education overseas, you can still share your international experiences in your resume. The activities that you have done in this course certainly counts and, of course, anything you have done outside of this class will count as well. Certainly you can add this course to your resume and list the activities completed in this course. If you have completed a travel abroad program or have done anything else related to international studies, please include that in your resume. You can include your international experiences under skills, in your personal summary, under education, and/or, if applicable, in the work experience area.
Create a resume that captures your international experience. Make sure your resume reflects your true experience. Feel free to research some international positions locally or abroad for a frame of reference for your resume. Submit your resume using this link before the due date.
From the instrutor : “Hi class,
I have been getting quite a few questions regarding the international resume assignment, and I wanted to provide some clarification. The purpose of this assignment is to get you thinking about what an exceptional international resume would look like. Given that some of you don’t have as much experience with international/global business practices and trade (and that’s totally OK), please fill in information (even if it’s not actually what you’ve done) to create a stellar international resume. If you can use your own experience, it’s highly encouraged.
Kersten”
