Question

In the section for additional information on a résumé, you should include
contact information.
educational background.
school clubs.
job history.

Answer 1

None of the first three belong in an "Additional Information" section as a rule. Breakdown:

- Contact information — No. Put this at the top of the résumé (name, phone, email, LinkedIn/portfolio).
- Educational background — No. Put under an Education section (degree, school, dates, honors).
- Job history — No. Put under Work Experience or Employment (job title, employer, dates, accomplishments).
- School clubs — Maybe. Only include clubs if they’re relevant (leadership roles, accomplishments, or skills) and you don’t already have a better place for them (e.g., Activities, Leadership, or Volunteer section).

What to use "Additional Information" for: relevant certifications or licenses, language proficiency, clearance, technical skills not listed elsewhere, relevant honors, publications, availability, or other facts that don’t fit neatly into the main sections.
