Hello all,
I'm an early career psychologist. I have been working at a VA and I'm thinking about applying for jobs at other VAs. I have my CV from what I used during my years as a grad student (to apply for internship and postdoc) and the CV that I used to apply for my current job. But, now I'm wondering if it's time to graduate to a different CV. I'm sure the answer is yes. But, my question is if I am an early career psychologist and working at this VA has been my only job post-graduation and licensure, then what would I include on a CV now. The VA jobs that I am applying for are primarily clinical roles (e.g. staff psychologist) so I would not be doing research or teaching. It sounds like my CV would be only one page if I only include my education and current VA job. Please help. I want to look professional, but I do not have much to include at this point.
Thanks!
