All I put on my resume is "lettered in HS football"


That way, every employer knows how much I have earned and accomplished. Nothing else needed.

I include that I was in chess club, just to show that I'm a badass and don't take no crap off nobody.

What's there to explain?

I've been told to keep it to one page at this point in my career, so I do. There's a lot of other information to put on there and I dont have room for another line.

I've already spread the margins to fit as much as I can.

No because I have two college degrees (last month of grad school )

Nobody cares about your gpa or what high school you attended.

frick no. On an application of course, since there's a section that asks for HS info. But just on my resume? What a waste of space, I doubt many employers care, especially if you're several years removed from HS.

Not on there. For education I have my college degree and school name. Have a boat load of certifications and shite like that so I put them on there depending on how relevant they are to the interview at hand.

I have mine listed It only takes up one line, and you never know when it may be that extra piece of info that gets you an interview or job. To my knowledge it has never hurt me, but who can know for sure

No

Its hard enough fitting college degree on a 1 page resume with past employment experiences much less a high school degree

I went to St. Pauls


In the business community, It is more significant than my BS and MS from LSU.
