I recently graduated with my BA. My resume isn't that impressive. Should I include my high school information, clubs, and volunteer work, etc.?

I wouldn’t… it’s too far back… but you can include anything you did more recently… like Habitat for Humanity or similar…

Depends on what you are going for and where

It's good to include those especially if you're leading / organizing some events.

Hi! I am seeking for an advise, anything helps! I applied to Accenture’s entry level analyst program. I applied a few days ago (I know it’s a bit late, but the application is still open thankfully). Yesterday, I joined a resume workshop w/ an Accenture recruiter. She went through my resume and said that I have a strong one! I’ve also set up a coffee chat w/ her next week. Unfortunately, I got an email today from the system, they decided not to move forward :( Should I reach out to her abt this?
