Resume help

Post by mermaidprincess92 » Tue Oct 22, 2013 4:57 pm

My current job as a secretary I have been working for 4 years (since freshman year of college). While I am still working there now, I thought it would be a better idea to put my two legal internships from the last two summers in front of it because those show I have experience in a legal setting. Should I put the secretary job first though because I am still working there? How much does chronological order matter?

I think you can put the legal jobs first because you started as a secretary before the internships. It definitely can be done without being awkward.
