Resume Activities, Honours and Distinctions

The activities and honours are usually listed in one section especially if they both support the same career objective & job requirements. If you have an extensive list of activities that supports your career objective, than it could be the case that these could be separated. Always keep the resume section headings to a minimum.

Keep in mind that the information at the top has to capture the employers attention, so it has to be very relevant to the job you are applying for.

The resume activities and honours section is used mainly by graduates and school leavers who have limited job experience. The objective of this section is to show you are pro-active and take initiative. This resume section should be concise and support your career objective.

This section should tell your employer more about your interests. Include any official or leadership position you occupied.
