Applying to PhD programs:

PhD in OB vs. Psych: https://ideas.wharton.upenn.edu/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/So-you%E2%80%99re-interested-in-a-PhD.pdf

I highly recommend checking out the Business PhD Wiki, which contains several resources, like examples of personal statements and CVs: https://businessphdwiki.com/doku.php

If you're from an underrepresented background and wanting to learn more about business academia, consider the Introduction to Diversity in Doctoral Education and Scholarship (IDDEAS) Program, which is a fully-funded, two-day program that introduces undergraduates to the field of business academia. Applications open up each November! https://doctoral.wharton.upenn.edu/iddeas/
