Resume/CV Application for Postgraduate Cambridge

Any advice, guidance, link for information for how to go about this? What sort of design do I use? What information must I include? Cambridge Uni website does not give any information at all other than it is needed.

What degree/ field are you planning to apply to (STEM, arts, etc.)? For a STEM degree, you should highlight any research or work relevant to your field e.g. internships. A general structure would be to start with a section on your education, then research or relevant work experience. Remember to tailor your CV specifically for the course you are applying for. If you are currently in uni, I suggest you use your uni's career services – they should be able to advise you on your CV.

Completely depends on what you are applying for. My CV had the following sections: Personal Profile, Education, Awards, Research Experience, Additional Experience, Talks, Publications, and Extra-Curricular Involvement.
