Guide: Resumes and CVs

Do you need a résumé or a CV – or both? What should these important documents include? How can you avoid common mistakes? These essential career documents should be straightforward and specific, convey your achievements to potential employers, and show how you fit the role and experience they are seeking in a PA.

AAPA is committed to connecting pre-PAs, PA Students, and PAs at all career stages with the resources they need to navigate every step of their career journey. There are hundreds of resources in the Career Central library, and we are adding more all the time.
