How do you abbreviate degree on a resume?

How do you abbreviate degree on a resume?

While it’s acceptable to abbreviate the degree to B.A. or B.S., it looks more professional to spell out the full Bachelor of Arts or Bachelor of Science. (Note: Don’t add ‘s after Bachelor when spelling out your degree.)

Should you spell MBA on resume?

You can opt to include the full name of the degrees, Master of Business Administration, or just the initials. The MBA can be written with periods – M.B.A., or without. Depending on how you got your education, you can list your MBA first, or after your school. The college’s business school may add flavor to the resume.

What order do you list degrees in?

The Oxford University Calendar Style Guide places degrees in the order: bachelor’s degrees (including postgraduate bachelor’s degrees such as the Oxford BCL) and other first degrees; master’s degrees (including those that are first degrees, such as MPhys); doctorates; higher doctorates in order of academic precedence.

Do employers look at your diploma?

How do employers perform degree verification? Sometimes, a hiring manager may ask you to present your diploma, so they can keep a copy of it in your file. Another way a hiring manager may authenticate your education is by contacting the schools or universities that you attended.
