Resume/CV question

<p>Is it appropriate to include a volunteer activity that was started in high school and continued into college on a resume/CV? I'm a senior in college currently looking for a job and the activity in question is particularly relevant for most of the positions I'm applying for.</p>

<p>yes, you can absolutely include volunteer experience on a resume.</p>

3

<p>Right, but I mean can I include it if I started it in high school and then continued it into college?</p>

4

<p>Why wouldn’t you?</p>

<p>Many people will tell you not to include high school activities on a college graduate resume. I tend to agree with that position unless the high school accomplishment was very significant.</p>

<p>However, in this case, you continued with the work through college, so I would include it.</p>
