do you put your school grades on your CV?
Have been considering not doing this. I did much better on the 2 university courses (at reputable universities) than I did than at school (an average state school).
Although there's the odd person who can see I turned it around, with most of them I doubt they do - and I often think they place too much on it.
No. Unless it's your only qualification, or also if it's your first job out of school.
If it's not your first job and you have further education, virtually everyone will ignore any school qualifications you have.
not first job and have BEng and MSc
but I still think recruitment consultants are reading it 😆
sounds like I should definitely remove it though unless asked for it
a recruitment consultant read a cv! I suppose there is a first time for everything
If you didn't do so well but have a masters degree I wouldn't bother.
Don't bother - they are irrelevant after a while
I sometimes include my school just to show that I am not some privately educated tosser and my outstanding academic achievements are down to my own abilities and not my parents wealth 😆
When I'm looking at cv's, school marks are of little interest unless it's a school leaver vacancy. Your degree etc are more interesting ... why draw attention to something that's not required?
