Just wondering people's thoughts. In my 46 years in the workforce, not job hopping and have some sustained tenure with employers. I have had a wide array of roles. Do you think it is helpful or hurtful to include all on a job profile?

It's usually best not to have large gaps on a resume, but people will also say no one cares what you did in the more distant past. One approach I've heard is to list the most recent jobs with brief job descriptions, and then have a section noting the more distant history as just bullet points. To be honest, I'm not sure if that's the best approach, but it seems like if it was done well it could be effective.

smart

I think it all depends on if it it is relevant to the job you are applying for. Don’t include your time when you were a teenager at a fast food joint when the position is for a logistics analyst.

Wondering if anyone can share the approximate timeline after applying to Target Corp. to hearing something from them. Applied 9/1 and on the applicant portal the status still says “in progress.” I got a great internal referral, but I’ve not reached out to the hiring manager. 😬 I know there were a few hundred applicants — what’s a realistic timeline and what could I say to the hiring manager if I reach out to them. Many thanks.

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…

Hello anyone reading this! I wanted to ask for any realistic, recommended job positions from someone with more knowledge and experience. I am graduating this December with my BBA and am ready to leave the job I’m in now. I’ve been applying for a range of positions I qualify for and nothing so far, which I expected. I have 3 years of experience in management operations but also have 6 years of experience with child care, is that why I may be getting rejected? Maybe I’m overthinking my resume? 😅
