List Part-Time Work?

[trenttrenttrent]

I'm preparing grad school apps for a few different programs, and I'm wondering if I should include part-time work that I did this past summer on it. I left my other job, got a gig for the summer (fixed, seven-week job), part-time, in my field. I recently started a new job. Is this summer job something that I should put down on my resume/CV?

 

Also, the schools ask for my four most recent professional experiences, full- or part-time. I'm worried that, if I include this part-time work, it will obscure a relatively prestigious fellowship that I did a while back, as that is over four jobs ago. Of course, that fellowship is on my resume, but I'm worried that this initial list is meant to filter out students, and could cause my app to be cast aside before they see anything else.

Does anyone have any thoughts on this?

A CV is supposed to be academic/scholarly and is primarily a laundry list of all academic/research accomplishments.  It is meant to outline your achievements and potential as an academic, scholar, and/or researcher only.  A resume is more-or-less an image of your professional self.

 

Only list employments/volunteer work that are directly related to academia (including TA or tutoring), scholarly,  and/or research on a CV.  So yes, list that summer research job.  

 

As for your most recent employments:  follow the directions and only list the most recent four.  Do not worry about them overshadowing your fellowship; the adcoms will see your fellowship listed in your resume and you can also mention it in more detail in your SOP.
