Turning your CV into a resume feels daunting—and maybe even impossible. How do you condense a several page document into a one page resume? How do you make the change without cutting important information? And, possibly most difficult of all, how do you convert your academic accomplishments into ones that are quantifiable and meaningful outside of academia?

In this episode, we discuss how we changed our CV into a resume, including how we quantified papers. We also talk about the importance of establishing a "yay me!" file, why self-promotion is ok (even if it feels strange), and that sometimes hiring a professional is the way to go.
