Listing volunteer hours?

Post by icehotel » Mon Feb 08, 2010 8:12 pm

How much volunteer work should I have done before including it on my resume? I'm not about to put that I only volunteer for about 15 hours for X place (unless that is in some way helpful, but I doubt it). I've just started to get really involved in volunteer work this year, so I don't have that many hours accumulated yet.

In terms of listing it, what should be the minimum hours per volunteer activity to include it? 100? More? Less?
