Resume kid

One of those (usually upper-middle class white) assholes that only does anything to put on their resume, or to look better for colleges. They join lots of clubs and organizations, but never put any effort into them, or put in the minimum effort to remain a member; they've been out of more groups than you've been a part of, especially groups that look good on paper but don't actually do anything (the kids that start "charities" in high school and write their college app letters on how their trip to Ghana changed their lives are a prime example). They don't actually care about anything other than the nebulous goal of "achievement".
Often a premed.
Alice: Carol just joined the physics club!
Bob: Yeah, but she's just a resume kid, so she'll never actually come to meetings.
