Resume templates for law school

One-page application resumes built to the conventions admissions readers expect.

Law school wants one page, no objective, and a plain reverse-chronological spine, because the resume sits beside a personal statement and is not asked to repeat it. Everything takes a date range and a place. Leadership and pro bono count, and so do the jobs people leave off: waiting tables through a degree reads as capacity, not filler. Honours, journal and moot activity go where a reader finds them fast.
