I put it at the very bottom under “Leadership and Community Involvement” as a chair for a community board leader. I’ve received quite a few good questions about it and it has made for conversation. Also highlighted my leadership skills where I previously wasn’t in a management position.
I often talk about my volunteering experience in the interview because it showcases my personality, but I don't really have room on my résumé to include it. Especially with how little time the average recruiter has to review each application, it just doesn't seem like it carries as much weight as it used to, or is as valuable as something like education and experience.
I’ve started including it more recently. I used to leave it off, thinking it wasn’t ‘professional’ enough, but some volunteering roles have taught me quite a bit about management and teamwork.
I put it on my resume but my volunteer work is chair of a local political party. Shows my leadership abilities.
I've mentioned volunteer work at the bottom of my resume in its own concise section. As people tend to skim a resume on first look I'm not sure it really makes an impression. But I assume it can't hurt to indicate that you're someone who cares about something other than yourself.
I used to have volunteer work on my resume but that was back when I didn’t have much experience in anything and needed more to fill up my resume. Now my resume is so long I have to cut some things off of it so I no longer include volunteer work. I would really only include it if you have the space for it.
Most definitely put volunteer work at bottom of resume or if skills relevant to the posting list them in the Summary section up front then put details of the workplace and duration at bottom under Volunteer work. Not everyone does volunteer work It may determine you are the candidate they want over other comparable one.
