I'm reviewing resumes. I loved how one person described her mission:

Why list it at all if you are going to describe it that way?

Generally I say don’t list it. The one exception is if you went after

You should only list it if you were an AP.

Why wouldn't you list it though? If that counts against me, I don't want the job

I wouldn’t want to work some place that holds it against me that I babysat in

two years of significant volunteer service is exceptional for a young person.

well... if you've been home from your mission for 20 yrs I would leave it off

I don't think it's that bad, TBH. It's not untrue.

I used to think listing missions could be awkward, but my thinking has changed.

This. And living 2 years internationally is a good unique feature about you

Members of the church need to own who they are and not try to hide it.

I would ding a resume that was embarrassed to say a mission is a mission.
