Thank you, Tirza for opening this dialogue 

My question is...
How important it is to mention my leadership positions in one of the ASCE Student Chapters?

I was a board member twice and a member for over 4 years. I was very active with the chapter but when I wanted to create a resume I only had space to mention below education that I was a board member. 

How have you set these positions in your resumes, especially as fresh graduates with internship experiences? 

Regards,

Hi @Hala Abdo, 

@Danielle Schroeder started a discussion about this ​​topic a few weeks ago. There was some good advice shared on this thread. I'm interested to hear other thoughts as well!
