Evaluation

[GradAsk]

I worked for company after undergrad (non-psychology field), and I'm considering graduate school in Psychology, but do most psychology graduate schools evaluate prospective applicants based on their previous work experiences?

They'll mostly look at GRE scores, GPA, and related work experiences. One part of the application process is your statement of purpose essay - here, if your non-psychology work experience has provided you with a skill set that is applicable to tasks involved in your graduate studies, you can emphasize these skills and how you think they will be helpful in your graduate degree.
