<p>I'm a freshman year applying to summer internship and I want to present my two 1st-author publications, one in a top-10 (acc to wikipedia) journal in the field, in my resume. What is the most effective way of doing that, like in descriptions under the research positions in work experience or as citations in a separate section?</p>
<p>On that note I'd really appreciate any tips you have on how to present research experiences on the resume in a way understandable and appealing to company representatives. Thanks for your help.</p>
<p>Are you making a CV or a resume? If you’re making a CV then it would go under “publications”. If you’re making a resume, list it under “Awards/Honors” (the specific journal, the name of your paper and the fact that you’re a first author). Also for a resume, in work experience - for research - summarize the research into one bullet point. </p>
<p>I know it’s very hard to summarize an entire project, but you want to give the companies a glimpse of your research so that they can find out more about your research during the interview.</p>
