"Girls....are expected to be ‘humble’—not try to take the spotlight, emphasize the ways they are just like everyone else, and de-emphasize ways they are special.”
We discuss this issue all the time and are constantly encouraging our girls to be more vocal about their many accomplishments. I just never thought about how it might be reflected in their resumes as well. Perhaps it's time to ask yourself "do you write like a girl?"
You can be sure we will discuss this issue during Application Boot Camp for seniors on Wednesday, August 7!!
