BCG Advance - Put where in Resume?

Hi! I'm wondering if for insight series like BCG Advance, BCG Launch, should I put it in my activities section in my resume under my activities for university, or down below at certifications? Thank you!

Hi there,

Under the university activities, probably. If you would like for me to take a look at your final version (free of charge), just DM me - happy to assist you!

I would at best put it as a one liner under activities / a single bullet point under the education portion

This experience while useful is not 'meaty' or significant enough to be on the same level of significance as an internship.

All the best!

As other coaches have suggested, I think this should be a small part of your CV - perhaps a one-liner in your uni activities section

Hi there,

First of all, congratulations on the invitation to the BCG Advance conference!

I would be happy to share my thoughts on your question:

  • Since only undergraduate students are eligible, you may include it in the university section as a bullet point in your current study program, or somewhere in the last section. However, do not include it as a certification unless BCG actually provides one after the conference.

You can find more on this topic here: How to succeed in the final interview round.

If you would like a more detailed discussion on how to best prepare your application files, for your upcoming pre-interview assessments and/or interviews, please don't hesitate to contact me directly.

Best,

Hagen

Hi there, 

I would put it somewhere lower - like certifications or extra curriculars since it wasn't a formal educational or professional experience.

Best,
