This is the greatest thing that has ever happened to me notwithstanding (?) my admission to Michigan Law.

Thank you for taking the time to make these videos! They've been great for clarifying this otherwise opaque process.

Thank you for picking my question! This is very clear and helpful.

I am so thankful for you time and dedication to helping your viewers do well through all of these tips you have provided. Wish I was applying to your school just to meet you, lol, but there wasn't an online option for law school :/

Thank you for another great video! To me, seeing alumni being involved and adding value to UMich's community (whether online or in-person) years after graduation speaks volumes about their experience in school and ultimately the culture of UMich that made it enjoyable.

Thanks for these videos! Curious about the suggestion that your resume should start with college - are there any legitimately impressive things from high school which would be exceptions to your rule? Or would anything & everything from high school be a bad look?

Thank you so much for this! One question: If we have been out of school for a substantial time (for me, ten years), do I need to include every job I have had since college? Some of them are very old and not really applicable to law school.

Definitely not-the resume isn’t meant to serve as a background check, and irrelevant info can be left on the cutting room floor. That said, if you’ve had steady employment, it is to your benefit that the reviewer understands that-don’t make omissions that will make it seem like you’ve had big gaps in your employment history; you can just be much briefer in your treatment of jobs that you think are less pertinent.

Great video Dean Z as usual just a question on this topic.What about if while in college you also work fulltime as well..what should be first? Thank you Dean Z

@umichlaw 3 года назад

If I understand your question correctly, then my answer is: Put education at the top, and then jobs in reverse chronological order-but for jobs you held during the school year that are full-time, I would emphasize that by including something in the description along the lines of “(worked full-time throughout school year).”
