Question about CV

[Teaching Faculty Wannabe]

Hi all!

I have a question about including something on my CV. So, I have a section in my CV about presentations where I put poster presentations I have done. I also am thinking about including the fact that I gave a speech at my departmental graduation when I graduated a few months ago. I am not sure if this is important or not, but I think it can maybe make me standout compared to other applicants. The speech was about my time as an undergraduate, in particular detailing my love for the department and my fellow graduating classmates. (The department I graduated from was small, so I got fairly close with a lot of my classmates.)

FYI, I wasn't the only senior who gave a speech. My senior class voted me and another person to give speeches.

Also, if I should include this, how should I write it in my CV?

Thanks for your help!

I'm not sure that I would include it in a CV, but I would talk about it in your applications as a reference to your skill for public speaking etc...
