You will never believe what I saw on my recent client's resume - a job from the 1980s. Ugh, whyyyy!?!?!?! And I hate to say it, but as a professional resume writer, I see this mistake a lot, especially with my seasoned professionals who have been working for over 20 years. A big misconception about resumes is that it needs to list each job you've ever held in your life on it. WRONG! A resume is a tailored and targeted document that should be, AT MAXIMUM, 2 pages (and I did record a video on this). With that being said, this means that you will not have enough space to list ALL of your jobs, only a few. Meaning you'll only need to go back so far into your job history so everything fits. And that's where this video comes in! In just 5 minutes I break down: - How far back into your job history you should go on your resume - Why listing jobs PAST the recommended year in this video can hurt you in your job search - Reasons why listing past jobs that are not relevant can result in wasted space Be sure to like, share and SUBSCRIBE! _____ Want more career content from me?
