I aspire to be a dermatologist and I wonder how their life is outside of work. Like do they have a lot of free time if any and what are their typical hours? Also, do they always work at a hospital or can they have their own business? #medicine #business #dermatologist

What do I need to do to ensure that my resume is one of the best out there?
I asked a high school senior at my school the other day to show me her resume because she's one of the best students at my school. She hesitated but ended up showing it to me, and I was absolutely shocked. She had almost 5 pages of numerous clubs, programs, organizations, awards, and other...
