if i'm writing about one of the work experiences in the essay, how detailed should I write about that particular job (responsibility/tasks, etc) if thats already on the work experience section of the application?
specifically speaking, do they tend to have our resume/application out while reading the essay and go back and forth to check details? if so, it may sound redundant to briefly explain about the job experience in the essay??? it would be nice to leave that out, because my essays litte too long. any help is appreciated.
thanks in advance!
Keep the description brief (especially since you've noted that your PS is getting a bit lengthy). Make it just detailed enough so that the reader can understand what the job/activity was and how it relates to what you learned through it.
I'm not exactly sure, but I think that if they are looking at your essay and want to know more about the experience, they most likely have your whole file out (so they can take the 2 seconds to flip the page to the activities section or what not). Hope this helps.
