Hi there,

I am four years out from undergrad and have had a few time intensive and demanding jobs since then. I do political campaign work and government work and am trying to highlight all of my positions in that field that in my resume. In turn, the resume is over a page. I have never had a ton of free time in general, let alone for volunteer activities but did assist in a letter writing campaign for planned parenthood last year and will be teaching a workshop for women interested in campaign work next month. Question: If my resume is already over a page, should I include those volunteer roles at the end of my resume? Important to include my personal interests (running, hiking etc)?

Thanks!

Hi there,

I have been working on political campaigns for the past 10 years. I had an early foray into politics and the first three campaigns I worked on were primary races during the summer while I was in high school and college. I currently work in an elected official's administration and managed his re-election campaign last year. I am wondering if I should include the campaign work I did prior to graduating from college on my resume?
