Quick resume formatting question
Posted: Wed Sep 05, 2012 11:07 am
Hi all. Just curious about one nitpicky detail.
In listing work experience on my resume, my basic format is...
Employer
Job Title
[Bullets detailing responsibilites]
That whole block is indented and, to the left of it, I have the dates when I started and left each position. I've always had those dates in line with the job title, but a friend is telling me that it looks weird and I should have them in line with the employer's name. What do you all do? And, if you do the latter, how do you handle promotions? Do you not break down the time you spent in each role and just lump together the time you spent at the organization in both roles?
I hope that's relatively clear.
