When entering the name of a School / Institution you have attended, within the Education section, please make sure you:
-
Type the full name of the School / Institution, followed by any acronym or abbreviation it is also known by (do not simply enter the acronym or abbreviation by itself). Otherwise, employers may not be sure of the exact School / Institution you attended
-
For example, it is incorrect to simply enter: SUNY @ Brockport
-
It is correct to enter: State University of New York at Brockport (SUNY)
-
For example, it is incorrect to simply enter: St Mary's
-
It is correct to enter: St Mary's High School
-
Only enter one institution for each education record. For example, if you completed half of your bachelors degree at one university, and half of it at another, then you should record this as two separate items in the Education section
-
For example, do not type multiple names in the School / Institution field, such as: Golden Gate University / Lincoln University
-
Create one Education record for Golden Gate University, and another one for Lincoln University
