★If you gained or improved important skills through voluntary work, include these skills and developments in the voluntary work description. Pay attention to any skills that may also be important to your potential employers.
★If you have volunteer experiences that are unrelated to your industry, you might consider including a brief voluntary work section at the bottom of your resume if you feel it will set you apart from other candidates.
