Tips

Make it count.

What hiring managers look for, and how to get the most from this template.

01
Use one citation style throughout
Pick one, such as Harvard or APA, list the most recent first, and give your name as it appears in print.
02
Show your role on each grant
Principal investigator, co-investigator or collaborator, with the funder and the amount.
03
Give your teaching some detail
Module, level, number of students and your role, such as module leader.
04
Add your ORCID iD
Put it in your links, so reviewers can see your full record.
05
Longer is fine, padding isn't
Three or four pages is normal for an established academic. Beyond that, list selected publications.
