Advice: I am looking to update my resume after two years of consulting work. How is everyone showing the work you did on various projects? Iv worked on 5+ projects but if i put a section with multiple bullets under each it would be over a page.

I’m in the same boat. I have 2 years experience and about the same # of projects and I’ve submitted over 100 resumes to jobs that I’m well qualified for with 0 call back.

I’m editing my resume now to highlight projects rather than companies and I’m switching from bullet points to just using 2 summaries per project. 1 summary about what the project was and another about what I did on that project. Each summary is 1-2 sentences, 3 at the most.

Hope this helps. Happy hunting friend

Hey would you mind sending over your resume so I can view it for reference? I’m in the same boat and can’t figure out the format without making it look extremely wordy

For IT it does not matter how long your resume is. Ensure you list the companies, responsibilities & accomplishments. My resume is 3 pages and I don't have issues. It is about the content.

Had an Excel assessment yesterday as the second to last step in an interview process. I was using a new computer and long story short, had some technical difficulties (or maybe just my own incompetence under stress) and ended up only getting through half of the test. I’m on the fence about emailing my recruiter and explaining the circumstances/asking for a retest. Don’t want to come off like I’m complaining but also don’t want this to be the reason I don’t move forward. Any advice appreciated…

Quick question.
I was a contractor for a big company and they just let me know that my last day is December 30th. I got this position thanks to a recruiting company that has been great and gives me benefits.
Should I:
- Continue working with the recruiting company, hoping that they will find another position for me? (as they told me they will, and when they applied me I started working with my current company within 2 weeks)
- Work with the recruiter + apply for jobs on my own?
