I've recently finished my studies in architecture and am currently looking for a job. While doing so, I've got to do the obligatory portfolio, as well as write down my curriculum vitae / resume.
I'm wondering wether or not I should include what i've done music wise, as it could explain a bit why i've taken so long to complete my studies. However I have no idea where and how to put it in.
Any of the work folks not working in music professionally adding your music related things in your cv ? if so how have you done it? was it worth it?

Don't really know...
A lot of people include a 'intrest' or 'hobby' in their CV, you maybe can include something about your music there?

As your are looking for a job in the architecture world I would put the fact that you are a producer as more that just interests.
For me being a producer is a sign of creativity. Being able to create nice things from scratch.
Off course if you are applying for a job in a bank or a very traditional environment then i would not mention it. Actually it all depends on the recruiter. Some of them are really not openminded while others prefer candidates who do or have something special.
Just make sure that when you have an interview you can explain why it took you a bit longer to finish your studies. There are lot's of people who spend more time on their studies than foreseen. So that's not a big deal. Just tell those people what you learned by making the music, playing around,...
Like SDL says don't underestimate yourself. Especially as a starter everything can be important. So add as much relevant information as possible.
And it's also a good idea to adapt your cv to the company where you are applying. That way you can match yourself more to the job description. it's all about those little changes here and there to make the cv better.
