A job resume should focus on the relevant experiences to the job you are applying for. By the same token, the b-school resume should be tailored to convince the admissions committee. To do so, you need to show a clear career progression and focus on the achievements on the jobs are relevant to your school applications. For example, if your b-school application theme is to be an entrepreneur, then you should highlight those experiences on your resume related to your success being an idea generator and seeing things from beginning to end with your active involvement. If you want to be in investment management, you need to include experience with investment clubs or similar associations to demonstrate your efforts in the field. In short, different highlights for different readers.
