  • I came back here to find some useful imformaiton for my own resume (CV). I need to prepare one, which is required for me to study in an English speaking country as a visiting scholar. Maybe I should include my work experience and education background, but I'm not sure if I need to put in my personal imformation or accomplishments (some of my articles were written in Chinese and published in China's magazines - I don't think they know some of the magazines.)
    Any suggestions?
