The New Job Game-6

To put your experience it should be relevant to the job you are applying for otherwise it will go to the garbage pale (I know from experience believe me). But unless you apply for a job which you have no experience for you will not even be considered. Even if you qualify as an experienced person but are over qualified (like you were the executive of the company), your prospective employer will be reluctant to hire you for a reduced pay since he or she will feel that you would not be happy and will jump ship as soon as the economy becomes better or a good opportunity arrives. That is the main reluctance of the employers right now to hire overqualified persons.

But whatever happens you have to put your experiences right in your resume for the last

Fifteen years starting from the latest one and then down from there. Do not right every thing you have done otherwise your resume will be like for six pages and people don’t have the time. Try to keep it under three pages, preferably two is better
