Caitlin Fitzsimmons: My current and past 2 jobs are company & job title (on one line) and 2-3 short bullet points. My previous jobs have 1 bullet point each.

Caitlin Fitzsimmons: Even if I just went down to company + job title for earlier jobs, it still wouldn't fit on one page, if I want to include summary & degrees.

Susan Kennedy Look at how long you've been out of work. what you are doing in the interim? Are you volunteering? working PT? too much time not good

132 weeks ago from Ask A Coach

Caroline Ceniza-Levine: Totally agree. I would also add learning new skills, especially language and technology
