Getting ready to update my CV and I was wondering what to do about all the student work experience and activities on my CV. I've been out of school for two years; are employers even going to care what I did as a student?

You can take student stuff off after you worked your first pharmacist job for a decent amount of time (more than a year).

So if you're applying for residencies, you want to keep that stuff on?

Of course you will need it for residency application.

I prolly should have clarified, should you keep your activities from you undergrad on if you're applying for residencies? ie: student athlete, research, volunteering.....

Where's the option for "CVs are stupid. I never listed it."

Student work experience can stay about 5 yrs max. Student activities go as soon as you get your first job.

student athlete should always stay on... employers eat that stuff up for some reason.

I knew I left something out.

Second that. If you played organized sports in college, they always notice it. If the hiring person is a guy, you're practically golden.

I think it depends on the work. I took out all the rotations I did, but left some of the bigger presentations. As time goes on and I get more, those will also come out.
