Mistake - how bad?

Post by neyaae » Tue Jan 04, 2011 3:24 pm

I just realized that I did not put on my resume the experience I wrote my PS about. Should I send in a revised resume? Also the experience in question would have looked really good for a scholarship I applied for at one school. I can't believe I did this.

would that just draw more attention to the error, since I don't have anything more recent to add? or, is the error already glowing? should I send through snail mail?

email them an updated resume and explain your error in the email. it shouldn't be a problem (Honesty is the Best Policy anyway, and if you don't do anything now you'll keep thinking about it until it drives you insane, trust meeeeee)

TCR. Simple mistake. No one will care.
