Marjorie Stiegler MD

What's the best way to include your publications on an industry resume? What if they make your resume too long? What if they aren’t clinical trials, or in a different scientific area? 

This episode provides an approach for creating a resume from your academic CV, specifically about whether and how to include publications. We’ll discuss how to determine whether they are relevant, and how they best showcase your skills. 

We will discuss: 

  • Highlighting direct relevance for the selected publications 
  • Including the skills you gained from the process 
  • Curating and organizing your list, depending on the job you’re applying for 

 

When you focus on strategically framing your publications, you can effectively communicate your expertise and transferable skills, ensuring your resume stands out without distracting the reader with irrelevant details.
